– Took a family photo of a Korean family from Texas and shot the shit with them about Mexican food and the Architecture Tour – Decided that the average NYC girl is 20-25% more attractive than the average Chicago girl – Made fun of kids who were wearing t-shirts bedazzled with the Bon Jovi logo<\/a> made by their fortysomething groupie moms As I’m typing this, I am overwhelmed with the desire for pizza and I go downstairs to grab a slice.<\/p>\n …<\/a><\/p>\n I’m back.<\/em><\/p>\n – Complained to Lawrence that I needed to find a Verizon Store with a Droid X to buy before the next day – Noted that the “Legend” moniker was no joke. There’s a half pig full of meat on this mother – Didn’t take an upskirt pic. Like I said in the Uno’s Review<\/a>, the upskirts on pan pizzas are all the same, so I didn’t bother to take the shot. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n I went back to the hotel and took a well-deserved nap. <\/p>\n Please don’t fire me; I was tired. I had a lot to eat. <\/p>\n<\/a>We’d just packed down a bunch of food at two places and were fighting to stay awake at Gino’s East. The lethargy in which we were entering this meal might have made a sloth hurry us along. Thinking back to the state I was in as I waited 45 minutes on some uncomfortable metal lattice deck chairs outside, I don’t understand why I didn’t just take a nap on the table. Here’s what I remember:<\/p>\n
\n– Stared at a really hot Indian (or Pakistani, or Sri Lankan? What’s the proper terminology?) girl in line for Gino’s
\n– Wondered why anyone was in a half-hour line to sit inside when there was so much patio seating available and it wasn’t the worst day to be eating outside<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n
\n– Watched four local women out to lunch sit down at the table beside us for lunch and all get individual pies. These things are a bit much when you’re planning on working for the rest of the day
\n– Went inside to the bathroom and wondered why there was graffiti all around the restaurant but there were huge signs in the bathroom warning that it was a graffiti free zone. Huh?
\n– Took a picture of Lawrence taking a picture of the pizza<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n
\n– Made fun of the moms for being proud of the shirts they made for their kids (they were terrible)
\n– Made fun of one of the kids for being proud of his shirt he bedazzled himself (this kid was about 16 years old – I shudder to think of the retarded stuff I did in the name of cool at 16)
\n– Observed how thick and yellow the crust of the pizza was. Why would pizza be made of corn? I put aside my disbelief for a moment – it looked like a cornbread crust, but there’s no corn in it. Whatever it was, it was satisfyingly crisp. I remember saying that I liked Uno’s crust more the day we had it, but right now, if I had to choose, I’d take Gino’s.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n
\n– Borrowed Lawrence’s phone to find Verizon stores nearby
\n– Called other retailers I thought might carry Verizon phones and found that either they didn’t carry Verizon or they didn’t have the phone
\n– Cursed at my old phone
\n– Admired how thick the layer of toppings, cheese, and sauce were on our Meaty Legend Pizza<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n
\n– Wished we had the meat lover’s pizza (or whatever it’s called) at Uno’s so I could compare.
\n– Finished a quarter of the pie
\n– Thought about going back to get another bag of free homestyle macaroni and cheese from Kraft (they were giving these out near the Tribune building; I made it and it was pretty damn tasty)
\n– Packed up the pizza to Lawrence’s surprise. I don’t know what he wanted to do with it, but I was planning to finish it later
\n– Saw an attractive girl looking at me from across the street get into the line at Gino’s and hold her gaze. Within minutes, she came over and asked me in a seductive voice, “Are you leaving soon?” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n
