I might be able to go up for a day... I'd probably take the train up but depending on finances I might be able to come...
I recommend Giordano's. I don't even LIKE deep dish pizza and oh. my. God.
The bad thing about Chicago, besides the traffic which you can avoid by taking the L, is that it can get pricey really fast - especially on a weekend. I can't remember what it's called but there is some kind of a pass you can buy that will get you in to the zoo and the aquarium and I think some of the museums and it works out to slightly cheaper than if you paid everywhere individually...
As for me, well, I usually go to Schaumburg just so I can do IKEA.
