This week, the Heave staff was asked:

We finally saw a weekend of genuinely nice Chicago weather! What’d you get up to in order to enjoy it?

Ben Kessell

I stayed inside and played video games. Like any real American would.

Adam Cowden

Went to the beach, obviously! Hopped on Divvy bikes with some friends and headed down with drinks and snacks.

Meghan Bongartz

All of the things. I went for a run on the lakefront path, took an excursion to the suburbs to go mountain biking, went to a barbeque, went to the zoo, and wore things that weren’t ten layers of fleece. And now it’s cold and rainy again, so I guess that means my body will have a few days to recover.

Johnny Coconate

I went outside and was immediately attacked by bears, so thanks for bringing up old wounds. You know how hard it is to write with one hand? Because I don’t.

Frank Macarthy

I wasn’t lying to you a few weeks ago when I discussed my plans for the warmer weather. I sat on my porch with a cigar, a glass of scotch, and a good book. I don’t know how much more pretentious I can get. And I love it.

Dominick Suzanne-Mayer

Spent half of it in the suburbs and the other half of it indoors building a portfolio. Cool life, bruh.
