Here I am right now, currently sitting in a motel in South Bend IN. And a cheesy one at that too. This being a football weekend, this motel (A national discount motel chain) which would normally probably charge around $50 a night is now charging $100 a night. But that's neither here nor there.
Tonight also, as I'm writing this, the surviving Monkees are performing in downtown Chicago. I have a ticket to see them.
So why am I in South Bend in this cheap motel room instead of watching the Monkees?
