morning 6 chicago

ah the comforts of home. well, someone else's home.
spent the night with friends paul and eevin last night, who i used to spend a lot of time with when they lived in oceanside. damn i missed their ferrets. oh and them too.
we had a party last night, too. after mingling with a good sampling of what this chicago suburb has to offer, i can conclude... or perhaps theorize... that these people were fed too much corn as babies. its all right though, nice people really. however, all they would drink was miller light, wouldnt touch the gernerous supply of booze we had. OH and i dont remember the last time i was surrounded by so many virgins. MALE virgins. kinda cute, kinda sad.

tonight is the qwel/blak watr/vast aire show! the event of the week! the event of a lifetime! the event about which CenterStage Chicago says, "make sure you don't have anything important to do on Sunday morning." and i am V.I.P. for that shit. cannot freaking wait.

tomorrow is my last day in this fare state of illinois, so i really hope i get to go to the chicago art institute museum tomorrow. and see downtown chicago today. i really havent done enough while ive been here since my friends are lazy asses. luckily paul and eevin understand the importance of showing a girl a good time :)

night 4 chicago

gobble gobble its the american genocide day.
some 400 years ago the land was covered white... and im not talking about snow ;)

on a lighter note, quite the vegetarian feast was consumed this evening. all that was missing was the tofurkey... but in glorious southern tradition there was collared greens, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, baked macaroni and cheese and a homemaaade apple pie. mm mm bitches.

tonight is the sage francis/against me! show... which i would absolutely love to enjoy... alas im too poor for $18 and instead the gang will be lurking outside the door, throwing flyers for saturdays extravaganza in peoples faces. lovely.

afternoon 3 chicago

snoring still coming from the couch
incredible gloom leaking in through the windows
a slight burning from the back of my eyeballs and a throbbing head.

wheres the weed at?

morning 1 chicago

11/19/07

a bit of vicodin and a squealing, gurgling radiator.
surrounded by the smell that up to this morning i could barely still remember.
quite comforting.

faint snoring on the couch with intermittent snorts.
a gloomy, beautiful, wonderful, chicago day.

on this, my anniversary

happy anniversary to meeeee
ive been at tracker for two years today!
my coworker gave me a pot cookie!

i still remember my first day like it was yesterday... the night before a drunk angry marine broke the left rearview mirror off my car! memories...




i need a raise.

bobby blue calls it stormy monday

They call it stormy Monday
But Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Monday
But Tuesday's just as bad

Wednesday's worse, Lord
And Thursday's, oh, so sad

The eagle flies on Friday
And Saturday, I go out to play
Yes, the eagle flies on Friday
And Saturday, I go out to play

Sunday, I go to church
And I kneel down and pray
And this is what I say, baby

Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on me
You know I cried
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on me

You know I'm trying
Log on to kill this message.
Trying to find my baby
Won't somebody please
Send her home to me, yeah

Well, I cried
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on me
I said I cried
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy on me

You know I'm trying
Trying to find my baby
Send her home to me
Whoa, yeah

ill bet slamming your head into a brick wall repeatedly is not recommended by any doctors. resulting concussions... internal bleeding... hemorrhages... aneurysms... this may be an exaggeration. maybe not. anywho, what im trying to get at here is that continuing to do something which returns consistently negative results is unhealthy and virtually brainless- essentially denying the human mind of its ability to grow and evolve. yet we keep plugging along, thinking the next time that brick wall comes along it'll magically evaporate and harry potter will be waiting on the other side.
