We went to the Kobe Steakhouse on Sun, and it was awesome. Like butta. Looking forward to the convention--but not the drive. See you soon.

Such a busy couple of days. Today is more soccer -- Chicago vs NE in the semis; also had a ton of writing to take care of.

Today I dunno what I will do; probably more writing and then I may tackle these windows in my living room. Been putting that off. Oh, and Hannah bought me a new orange toothbrush. Woo hoo!

Hannah, of...

Guten tag.

Well, a busy day yesterday -- had a ton of writing to do (for GM, ESPN and an underground guide to Chicago Manic D press is releasing) and then had a nice dinner with Guy and Hanah at avec, which is a small wine bar/tapas/bistro next to Blackbird on Randolph. One of Han's clients, Karon, is the sous there, and she makes awesome...

Saw Ted Leo/Pharmacists with Oneida last night -- lotsa fun; also caught up with the always gorgeous and talented Jennifer Lillian Trok, tattooist extraordinaire.

Our pal Guy is in town (no, not Han's bro) for a teacher's conference so we are showing him around town. It's shocking that when you actually are trying to show someone your city that the things that are cool about...

Saw Jucifer last night -- pretty great as usual. The sound sucked, but what can you do?

Got Banana a shirt and played knuckle tattoo boggle with Amber. Excitement!

If anyone is on nerve and in Chicago, please visit "slickchic." Really, she's great.

Today is already shaping up as "one of those days." The furnace is out, I am way behind on work and my housemate and I are once again feuding. If only she wouldn't leave the damn toilet seat up all the time! (No, just kidding.)

And Banana is all lonely in rainy Texas. So Sad! She took my "spare" Snoopy with her to cuddle up...

Another day, another dollar. Got lots of work to do today and have to take Hannah to the airport fer Dallas at 2. So sad!

I am convinced that chicken wings and beer (once a meal that Han and I began as something of a sly joke; now we're addicted!) remain as one of the perfect pairs in American cuisine. While BW3 on Lincoln is...
