Visit

Eric came to visit a little while ago. Despite multiple flight delays and cancellations, he (reluctantly) arrived at my place. Unfortunately, I had to work a lot but we managed to get in a trip to the Field museum to learn all about mammoths and mastedons and tried a bunch of dark beers. I also took him to Kuma's Corner which is a heavy metal-themed restaurant that blares music at high decibels while patrons eat gigantic burgers. Each burger is named after a ban like Iron Maiden. Some of the ingredients are things like "anger." Some burgers have fried eggs and bacon on top; one is topped with a hotdog.

This is my burger:



It was so big I couldn't unhinge my jaw enough to get my teeth around it. It was delicious but could easily give one the meat sweats. I skipped that stage and went straight into a coma. A delicious coma.
