Heads Miami. Tails Chicago.
The traveling bug has taken a nice bite out of me again. This time, it has taken a huge chunk and now I'm anxious to roam again. My mini vacation to New York seems like a "once upon a dream" thing. Even though I went in March, it feels like it didn't take place for some reason.
Now, I am finding myself mentally calculating on which way to spend some of my tax refund money. I still have plans to redo my bedroom and I still want to make it to Miami to meet up with Nisha to finalize a few things with Shekinah. However, a new venture has popped up and it's with Kel.
Chicago!
Kel had long partnered with a few house music production crews in Chicago for her promotions business, BAE. For the fourth of July weekend, one of the production crews are dishing out some heavy party artillery and calling the party H.E.A.D - standing for House, Electronica, Acid and Disco - music that is right up my alley!!!! Even though I'm not much of a club person, I will rise to the occasion when house music and all the sub genres under it, and reggae/dancehall music are involved. I'll even party to some old school dance and funk.
It's been a while since I really partied and had such an incredible experience in doing so. I mean, the experience of being around people who are all about the music and just want to dance....no profilers and no one trying their hardest to spit a pick up line!!!!!! I love that! Surprisingly I saw that in the club I went to while in New York a few months ago, but I was in such a chill mode that I enjoyed myself just by talking to the few guys I met there that night.
So I guess not only has the travel bug gotten to me, but dance fever as well. I wish I kept up with the underground scene here in DC. I lost track after a few of the clubs that were home to house music closed down, namely club Red. However there is still the DC Sanctuary and Club Five. I just haven't found the gumption to attend yet.
So which way will go? Miami or Chicago? What about the bedroom? Well, I'll set aside some money for at least a new bed. That is my main priority with my bedroom. Everything else will follow suit in its own time. Although my refund is looking nice this year, I don't want to overdo it in the spending. I'm still working with a budget and right now I just can't afford two places around the same time.
Shekinah is suffering a minor setback and I'm trying to help Nisha out the best way I can from this end, but it's just hard. I need to be there. At least if I do Miami, I can do a weekend there. Chicago, because I never been there and things with BAE starts on a Thursday, I will need about a week there. Chicago would be the more expensive trip..with airfare and hotel.
My impulses are telling me Chicago and yet my mind is telling me Miami.
I'll think things through over the weekend. Right now I'm giving myself a headache trying to figure it out. Maybe there is a way I can do both, if not .... I'll flip a coin.
