Lorenzo. I miss you. Love, Mel

Justin and I hung out at his place after work. We walked up to Division and Damen, dropped off some videos of his and picked up a six pack of beer. On the walk back, we happened across this sign:

Later on in the night, I found out from Chris, Eric and Will that there were a good eight or nine of these signs, all along Damen.

Justin and I spent an hour in his backyard which, though I didn’t really feel like beer at the start, was a wonderful thing. The day cooled and sitting outside after working inside all day was fantastic. We met up with one of his neighbors (Walter I think his name was), who teaches high school English and embarks on practicing law in another month or so.

After a bit, we headed off to Bite, a great restaurant on Western that’s right next door to the Empty Bottle. Met up with Chris, Eric and Will for some grub, and had some of the greasiest, tastiest fried catfish I’ve had in a good long while.
