Also since it is for 90 minutes without intermission, they encourage you to use the bathroom beforehand (and there is a bathroom song playing as well to get you in the mood). All in all, I would say worth it. Even more so if you get discounted tickets. There were a lot of kids in the audience and you could hear chuckles and laughter.
Now for the segue. One of the ways to get home involves a train and a bus ride. Usually there is a wait for the bus because it is pretty irregular. Waiting at the station is not fun simply because someone or the other will either try to chat or ask for me. The former is street harassment and for the latter, I do whatever I can, but I try not to when I am waiting at the station because if I do it once, then it attracts more people asking. Anyhow, this means I am always standing at an awkward place. It was also raining today. I was by the entrance today and this man walks at me. So I sidestep him. So he walks towards me and says hello, hello. Then he says you have pretty eyes. I am typing on my phone and making minimal conversation with him. Then he is like, c'mon, c'mon I am just being nice. Tell me your name. So I say, no, I think you should move towards the train. He gets a little belligerent, I was just being nice but eventually moves on. It left me a little shaken (not to mention being watched by more people) and as a result I missed my bus. That was a giant pain.
It has been a good week - I went to the Taste of Chicago yesterday with some other fellows and it was a lot of fun. But today evening was a little but of bummer (including some misunderstandings and whatnot) and I finally just gave in and took a nap because I felt myself getting derailed. Job searching is on in the background and that uncertainty lingers in several things.
