A week from now, we'll be eating leftovers. 

But until then, we all have to live our lives and pretend like we're watching what we consume ahead of Thanksgiving. So listen up. There's a lot to catch you up on this week.

Sit back and enjoy this week's RedEye Rundown.

>> No. 1: The show goes on...Cosby

Despite mounting allegations of sexual assault, three Bill Cosby comedy shows will proceed as planned. Burn your sweaters now, folks.

>>No. 2: Minimum wage limboWage

The fight to raise minimum wage rambles on in Springfield, Ill., where legislators are in veto session. What does it mean? Will they? Won't they? Can they? RedEye money whiz Megan Crepeau (miraculously) understands it, and breaks it down.

>>No. 3: *Free skating!Ice Skating

*With purchase of skate rental. Yep, because it's Chicago, Maggie Daley Park's new ice skating ribbon is free, but renting skates will cost you.

>>No. 4: Holiday bus debutsHoliday bus

What's better than a Holiday Train? A Holiday Bus! The CTA announced Friday that a bus that looks like Christmas barfed all over it will be new for 2014. Have fun trying to figure out whether the Santa on your ride home is legit, or just some drunk guy.

>>No. 5: Nighthawk at the museum

Local insane person (RedEye reporter Mick Swasko) spent the night (mostly) alone at the Art Institute of Chicago this week, and made it out alive and awake enough to make a photo album of his antics. SPOILER: There's a ghost dog.
