I just got back from Michigan..

I spent the last couple days celebrating x-mas with them. It was the only time we could all get together.

highlights of the trip:

driving my sisters minivan with a soccer ball sticker covering the back window

going to Meijer by her house that was full of rednecks... they are funny creatures.

seeing my neice who is 13 wearing...

People can be so paranoid about the city. I have a cousin that lives in the suburbs who refuses to visit because he thinks I live in a ghetto. He's told the rest of my family all sorts of ridiculous stories about Pilsen, scared my grandmother half to death. And I've seen more rats in the Loop than anywhere else.
thurmis:
I see rats in the subway a lot. Giant rats, and in the neighborhood around 47th and Damen there are HUGE rats, like the size of small dogs. I was helping my friend move some time ago, and we moved an old organ that he had in his garage, and a rat came out and ran across my shoes, i swear to god that damn thing brushed up against my knees it was so big.

I got a phone call from a girl I exchanged numbers with on Friday night. It came at 1:30 A.M. I was sleeping but answered it anyway. It was her.. omfg.. she's so hot. But even better, she's one of the nicest people I've met in a very long time. I lied and said I wasn't sleeping so I didn't make her feel bad.. one...

because my life consists of 2 hours of being on the train every day.. I seem to have something to talk about that is public transit oriented. So I desided to have a daily "L" Diary on here.

todays "L" entry

I had to get up rather early today to go do inventory. I was on the "L" at 4:40am.. as my father said when...

Yes, I definitely wish you luck with a stripper. Went through one of those myself about 9 years ago. I was very inexperienced and fell hard. Got really burned. Spent a semester in a bottle of vodka. Surprisingly, i had very good grades that term. Anyway, she got knocked up by a married Marine a few months after she dumped me, ended up doing some porn from what i heard. I saw her about 2 years back and she looked horrible---fat and pasty, like she'd been floating in a septic tank for weeks. I had to laugh. It was good to have won in the end.

I haven't been here in a while, I like the L journal, very amusing.

I was on the L tonight and a black girl walked on with a black mask with pretty lil silver and black chains coming off it. Of course it made me think, "WTF is she thinking" is her face cold and rather fashionable about keeping it warm? Maybe she is trying to start a new trend?
One of Michael Jacksons children he might of had...

Phantom just reminded me of my favorite guy in Jacksonville. If you drive down University BLVD, on a good day you will catch a glimpse of the strangest site. There is a man that rides his bike up and down that road wearing a Superman shirt (cape included) and camo pants. As if that's not good enough his bike has streamers and a flower basket on the front of it. The first time I saw him I almost crashed my car from laughing my ass off. I know he's probably not too mentally stable, but dear god how can you not laugh at that!
faithless000:
haha - was it the person who does the michael jackson routine on the mag. mile? all dressed in black and dancing with a milk crate... surreal confused
almost as good as the guy who dresses like an indian from the village people (he's black and middle aged) that walks past our office every noon to go sell socks by the 90/94 on ramp....
new year's party would be awesome.. i think my friends are going to be laaaaaaaaaaame again this year.

a bigger place is always nice....just sucks that you still have to go through all the moving crap for such a short distance....hope its all going well....
thephantomvi:
they were good songs, still proud of them, and with all the bad things that were going on in my life then, its nice thinking about all the nights we spent recording them...it was a good retreat from a lot of horrors....we only sold copies at shows, and a few in the local record shop....the few who bought them really liked it and that was a good feeling too....anyway, glad to hear everything is packed and ready to go....but i always hated the feeling of only piles of boxes in an apartment...always find excuses to leave a few mementos out until the last minute...glad it won't be a labor intensive process for you either....
oh, i added you to my friends list, put me on yours if you'd like....
