Who made the mix that had "Truck Driving Son of a Bitch" by Deadbolt at the last CD exhange party? The disk and playlist have no name on them. That became my cross country anthem. My first vehicle is a big old truck at 80mph.

Holy shit is it strange to be here in the SF area. This is where I grew up, where it...

We're on the border of Wyoming and Utah. Eating a fine continental breakfast of coffee in tiny styrofoam cups and DIY waffles, in our hotel.

esme tried dying her hair again, I helped, and the tub is now pink. So we need to get out of here before someone says something about the pink tub.

Last night we stayed in the Colorado hills, and before...

That was a long day Friday with the DMV drama

I'm feel much better.

But its sad that I am leaving just as soon I started to make many friends here in Chicago. I'm going to miss my friends.

yeah my time in Chicago ran away from me too quickly... I loved it but I didn't get to spend anywhere near enough time with you and the rest of the crew.
Are you & C on the same cell numbers? I tried to call her to chat but couldn't get through.

I got my drivers license finally.

Yes I'm fucking 36 years old and I just got it.

I just had a discusion with someone I love very much. It went something like this:

Wait so you're telling me that the reason that you weren't prepared for it was "some deep personal issue"?

umm..no I'm sorry I'm sorry.

But it should have went like this.

Fuck...

opheliar's the same way, she may be 36 by the time she gets hers. i'm no really sure what it is. it think it's a more rational approach to driving. if i hadn't had a wrestling coach in the passenger seat yelling at me the whole time, i think i would have found the whole thing _more_ terrifying. there's something about being 16 and learning it that's just easier. i dunno.

It's why I don't ride motorcycles. I love driving a car, I've been to racing school and done a tad bit of racing, but riding a motorcycle bothers me. I just don't trust the other drivers on the road out there -- they're shit and they're likely to run over me or something if I'm on a bike.

That said, I'm seriously considering going to motorcycle classes and getting a bike after I move to L.A. in a couple weeks. Has a lot to do with gas prices and the crazy amount of traffic out there. Plus, it seems more normal there, like people look out for bikes more there than they do most other places

But I get it.

Hey C and I bought ourselves some skateboards yesterday and I can't stop thinking about when I'm going to get on it next. I haven't skated in like a decade and these new boards have two tails and are super light.

So we went to Wilson park where there is a cool little skate park that was closed and hopped the fence. It was actually...

For some reason I feel really good today. But my back is pretty sore.

Open House today. I hope someojne comes and buys my place.
elora1:
i went running today....

don't feel any different yet. i gotta say the joy of physical pain far surpasses the joy of emotional pain. all the more reason to keep it up i guess.

there's a forest preserve about 2 blocks west of my work down north ave that i went to yesterday as well. it was fucking beautiful. i have been there before just to sit at the park and eat, but yesterday i went hiking through the woods for about a half hour. it was unexpectedly big and gorgeous back in the woods. and the des plaines river runs through there as well. i might make that an everyday thing.

That was fun. I haven't listened to everything yet. Roughly 2/5 of it.

A woman passed out on the train to work and had a fit. It happens every 3 months.

I picked up a Fortune Magazine because, well half of my financial education comes from that. This month its all about people make tons of money flipping houses in hot cities. Appearantly the boom...

I'd totally buy a living space environment pod thingy. I'm flat hunting at the moment and it's a bitch. Unfortunately I'm looking for somewhere a bit closer to home, and my budget falls severely short of your asking price wink

C and I just set our back porch on fire. It was an accident but there were two cans of tarnish there which probably made it worse. I don't know how full they were but it is certain that the porch will have to be repaired, probably on our dime. About an eighth of it got burnt pretty badly.

The culprit was a plastic flower...
