Scott and I are explorers. Often times we'll take crazy ways home, or just drive to drive. We generally are drawn to the barrios and ghettos of the city. There's a hint of excitement and a slight thrill you get from being in a neighborhood that could cause potential death. I don't know, call me crazy, it's fun.
Sometimes our outings are let downs, leaving us with an empty tank of gas and smelling like fried catfish, but then there's the other times. Oh yes, there's some times when we strike gold.
Like last weekend for instance. We winded, or is it wound? our way from the Highlands Square area up north until we were sufficiently scared. No we were not, yes we were. Then we headed back east, winding through Candyman territory in our shiny 2008 Jeep Wrangler. Just two kids listening to some Iron & Wine, driving through Cabrini Green, what's the problem?
So, we're driving, we're driving, and then we see this industrial building 
that says boldly on the front-Glass Blowing Classes. What? Glass blowing? Have my dreams come true? I didn't even know I wanted to try glass blowing until I saw it displayed proudly on the side of that building. Now it's all I can think about.

It's $289 for one Saturday class per person. Or, $399 for 3 Friday sessions. OUCH!
But how cool would it be to say, yeah I blow glass, it's ok, you can kiss me now.

Katy, you have to do that, and learn it, and then start your own glass company. You will strike rich. And then you can teach me how to do it. Seriously, how can you resist? $400 is SO WORTH IT... do it for me!! :P
Katy, even if the glass blowing class was one million dollars, it would still be totally worth it! I mean, you could become a carni and do the Renaissance Festival circuit and eat turkey legs and not shave your pits and be the glass blower chick. You have to wear a jester hat to boot. Please do it! ..for Amy and I! ;)
