Met up with Jon, Ric and Dustin today, after work. The three of us met at the Hilton (where Dustin’s staying), and meandered over to the South Loop Club for a quick drink. Afterwards, we headed over to the nearby AMC theater to catch a showing of First Descent. To be honest, I had no…
I think this here might be the friggin’ problem. Several months ago, my landlord (after hearing my complaints about the cold winters) had some guys install a new heater in my apartment. Free of charge. Well, it turns out they had this workaround. The vent (or exhaust, or whatever) should normally exit out of the…
This morning, I woke up and when I brushed my teeth… noticed that I had no hot water at all. The past few days, it’s been pretty cold out. And inside my apartment, it’s been a little chilly, Having lived here for the past few years, I know it’s cold in here (technically, it’s a…
Quick entry. L to R it’s Jon, Dustin, and Ric – all of us hanging out at Rainbo. Dustin’s in town for a conference, and we spent a good deal of tonight just chatting and getting caught up. Jon, rocking the Q-bert. It should be noted that Ric, until tonight, hadn’t played Q-bert ever. And…

After updating the photos from last night, I was reminded again of Guided by Voices and decided to offer up…

Prior to the birthday festivities, a few of us met up at Cafe Bolero for dinner. I walked in shortly after two other women, and shortly thereafter realized we were all attending the birthday dinner. I sat down with Nicole and Megan, two DJs at WLUW that also work with Chelsea. We were soon after…
Woke up early this morning, and did a bunch of errands. Lots of grocery shopping, and a stopover at Stanley’s for some veggies. Finally broke out my crock pot for the first time in… well, jeez, a long ass time. Full with supplies from the morning, I ended up trying my hand at making beef…
