we're home again.
briefly again, likely.
toronto was tons of fun, even if we did miss thewhole wonderland experience. since we had to leave at 5am, we weren't able to catch up with people's phone numbers beforehand, we decided against hanging out by ourselves at the park.

volkov:
have fun!
mya22:
wow... I just looked at the "L" map... I think that we're going to have to go forever on the "L" to get to your place from Steve's... he's at 4523 N Kenneth - which would be the blue line Montrose stop, I think. You guys are the brown line Diversey stop, right? Or we could always do brown line Belmont.... but fuck, we gotta go into downtown and then back up to you... HOW ANNOYING. But there is no way I'm parking down there during pride.
seriously. SG is responsible for all of my social life this month. there was the night of the year-end show at UIC, but even that ended up at a bar with rockinsteve
the SGChicago mix trade was awesome!
great idea, notoriousDUG
. even if it did take all of saturday to get ours and elora's cd's burned.

PROM PART 2
============
Saturday
Ophelia and i, being 2 time zones from home, left curry early. apparently sleep didn't fix o's internal clock, so she woke me up early, saying "it's 6:30/8:30!" at that point, i couldn't even remember which was which. so, she kicked me to the shower.
that early, i can't think. so i stared back and forth "tub, or shower?" "shower,...

Hay! Good seeing you guys again. And thanks for walking us around. Oh, and thanks for the CD! You two rule!!!!!!
Friday, 6am
opheliar and i woke up and dashed off to midway, en route to prom. dashed being the appropriate word, wherein "did we forget anything?" was answered "no" in .75 seconds. it wasn't until we'd passed ashland on the orange line we realized that the answer was supposed to be "sbk's ticket to prom". at that point, getting on the plane anyway was the...

Ya, I almost wrecked my truck trying to get a decent shot! It was very surreal.
noir:
Thank you. I'm doing a little better now.
I vaguely remember letting you into Curry. I was already pretty drunk by then. People wouldn't stop buying me drinks.

Hee hee. It might make me a nerd, but that "Translation" bit never gets old for me.
apparently it's everyone in the world's birthday this week.
thursday was hepburn's birthday at darkroom, which has an excellent selection of beers, albeit bottled.
nerdboy2345 had his birthday as well, although there was no explicit celebration, we just sang to him before hepburn arrived. he also used that as his "story" to jonalcoholic about why he should get nine inch nails tickets. it didn't...

nerdboy2345:
speaking of the new nin in 5.1, i listened to it the other day on my system, and it does not even come close to the redone downward spiral. that kicks ass. with the new one, i had to put my ear up to my rear speakers to see if they were on. doesnt seem to "surround" me like downward. maybe i need to turn it up
madigan:
Aparently, my boss is so cheap she doesn't want to deal with taxes when 15% gratuity is applied. So, we continue being fucked over.
It's not MY birthday.
It's not MY birthday.
i love chimichangas. ♥
tonight my apartment is being taken over by a bunch of chicago sg girls, so i'm off to some bar in little italy to hang out with coworkers. except i can't how much i'm supposed to dress up. i guess i'll wear jeans, and if i don't fit in, i don't fit in. since if i wear dress pants, i definately...

It's the fist time in like 10 years that all of the original line-up is playing and recording together.
ladymaze:
You are snuggling up to your lovely wife. Nothing creepy 'bout that, is there?
i didn't go vegan, the vegan came to me.
i'm 2/3 of the way through ripping all of my cd's. at various points in my life, i have had very, very bad taste in music.

Isn't it funny to look through your old CDs and MP3s? I always find myself thinking "How did I not manage to kill myself listening to this garbage for that many years?!"
ophelia:
I want to comment on your journal, but that picture is just creeping me out too much. I'm gonna e-mail you the other one I made now and see if you prefer it.
through a glitch in sg, i now have 3 favorite girls, not 5.
for a while last night i had 5 ophelias.
today has been extremely lazy. watching saturday morning tv, playing the half life 2 demo, etc. (which is a bad-ass demo, i can't wait for the game to come out for xbox, so i don't have to validate my copy every time...

no no no...the SACD format was release by the RIAA. I wasn't referring to the music.
_sarah_:
That bothered me, too. It was like every answer was either insanely Christian, insanely Taoist/Buddhist, or just "generic everyone else type stuff". It had a definite Christian bias.
Oh, apparently Frank Lloyd Wright day.
Less exciting, somehow...
