Tomorrow morning I'm traveling to Chicago from Milwaukee for the day. What should I do? Currently, I'm planning on visiting the Field Museum of Natural History. What else should I hit after/before that?
Atm besides the museum im thinking just walk around and eat some deep dish, unless someone has some good ideas.

The field museum can take quite a lot of time (3-5 hours), especially if you actually take time to read exhibits. If you get out of there with daylight to burn, maybe check out the Sears tower or the Hitchcock tower, or take a walk down Michigan Ave.

If you're looking for suggestions on where to get some deep dish pizza I'd highly recommend Pizzeria Uno. Pizza that is over an inch thick (not to mention delicious) equals fuck win.

Have fun.

The Navy Pier is a lot of fun too, there's a nice IMAX there and other stuff to do. It's close to a lot of other hotspots too. Have fun, I'm from Chicago, haven't been there in years. Hope to take my wife there to the Field Museum so she can see Sue. She's been wanting to see Sue for years since she's gone bone digging a few times in Canada. But yeah, have a good time!

The Omnimax theatre at the Museum of Science and Industry is WAY fucking cooler than an Imax that you can find practically anywhere. Though obviously the selection of movies to choose from is even narrower. They mostly have documentaries and sometimes a blockbuster-type flick. Oh and no 3D movies as far as I know.
The 180 degree dome view projector screen is an unforgettable sight though. I went to see a movie about rock climbing one time. In one scene they sent a camera dangling down a rope thrown off a chopper. I started to feel a little bit sick from the swaying ... and I've never been car or seasick in my life.
Check it out.

Don't bother with navy pier -- it's a waste of money and is seriously lame, I should know, I used to work there. Since you're going to Field, take the time to walk up teh lakeshore path a bit to Congress, then head west towards Michigan, and walk it north through millenium park and the Art Museum. Insider tip: walk norht to the HANCOCK and just go to the bar, skip the viewing deck if oyu want to save some money (though drinks are a ripoff and service sucks). FAR better view than the Sears, and you can see 4 states.

Just a heads up: That's a three mile walk. It's not like there's a shortage of things to see along the way though, so you probably won't be bored.
