Chicago: Totally hands-free!!!

Man, the "Farm" entry on Wikipedia continues to annoy me. Fucking vegans defaced it with statements about "dairy farms are places where female animals...are exploited as though they were objects."

According to the experts at ChicagoHome.com:

North Boundary: 2800 N Diversey
South Boundary: 2400 N Fullerton
East Boundary: 2400 W Western
West Boundary: 3600 W Central Park

One more day of reprieve, Edens construction doesn't start until 10 PM tomorrow night.

That doesn't seem right either ... what would be south of Fullerton? Humboldt Park?

I like Quenchers, except for the name, which I find dumb, and the guy who kept reaching into the popcorn thing with his bare pee paws instead of using the scoop, which I found repulsive.

I am not talking about the Commerce Clause on the internet.

i wish there were a place i would feel comfortable dancing. i LOVE dancing. more specifically, i love dancing with people i know. dancing with people i don't know is considerably less fun.

quenchers sounds like a really bad north carolina bar. i know it's not, but it sounds like one. to me.

Place for dancing: Chic-a-go-go. Plus you get to be on TV.

And they tape on Saturday morning, when you have energy.

Humboldt Park is pretty big, but I don't remember seeing maps that showed it going that far North.

you don't get it. i do NOT want to be on TV.

also i work sat. mornings.

watch as logan square gets bigger and bigger as real estate prices rise

The answer to the dancing issue is:

More weddings.

LaL OTM re: ever expanding Logan Square

watch as logan square gets bigger and bigger as real estate prices rise

or watch logan square get smaller as realtors make up fake names for the nice parts of logan square and divide up the neighborhood.

Ha ha ha, John.

Ok, so this is the second time I've seen the word felch this week, so I finally looked it up in a slang dictionary online. I already wish I could go back to the halcyon days of not knowing.

Jordan, What is the vacay for? A tour? Something else?

I love love love dancing and I will go dancing whenever whereever with you people. Just name a date and place.

Jeff, How old are you now? Just 29, right?

Colette - I was searching old threads about BOOTS because I have boots on the brain, and I found this pair of boots you posted which look alot like the ones I first posted upthread. How were/are they?

Jeff has to be 28 or younger, because he is younger than me.

Nick, when did you say before is the best time to ask for something from your boss?

I don't think I did say?

Because I don't know?

Weird. I thought you'd done a story on it or something. I remember that one good time is after he/she has had their coffee for the day, but my boss doesn't drink coffee.

Jordan, What is the vacay for? A tour? Something else?

pseudo-tour, the same overseas jazz festival we did a couple times before except a week longer this time

Where will you be heading this time? Do you know?

The main thing is in Ascona, Switzerland, but we'll be there a week ahead of time to go around a do promo shows in nearby towns and in Northern Italy, I think.

I've still never been on a real tour (which in my mind = longer than 5 days and playing every show in a new place) but it's a pretty cushy gig. :>

We auditioned a new pianist last night. Apparently he knows Dan M. from back at MTU, although not well, I don't think. (When I mentioned Dan's name, he said, "Oh yeah, he worked at the radio station. And hung out with this whole H0ught0n High Sch00l crew." His name is J0sh Schn@ble. We knew him because he's dated two separate K College alums. Michigan gets smaller and smaller.

(Not sure yet whether he will actually join the band or not. That's a whole other conversation.)

Dan has a common name too though.

Wait, are you suggesting there was another Dan M. from H0ught0n who worked at the radio station at MTU?

I don't know of any other Dan Martin's at Houghton High. We didn't grow up in a very large place.

argh, inappropriate apostrophe.

Ignore me. I'm blinded by my Sarah J0hnson past.

Dan has a common name too though.

It's actually quite exotic in Michigan.

Yeah, I mean, if he had said, "Oh I totally know Dan Mart1n, he was this big-time goth in the theatre department," I would've said, "Er, probably a different Dan Mart1n."

Morning, crew. I came in 45 minutes late today, because I knew I could. Everyone is either at a meeting or on vacation. My immediate boss is out for a week, and my higher-up boss is going to be too busy to mess with me for a while. It's sweet. I think instead of dicking around all day, I might actually catch up on some old, languishing projects.

I am not talking about the Commerce Clause on the internet.

That's too bad, but I understand. It seems... um... complex. Worthy of a never ending series of debates. Which, I understand, is pretty much what goes on between the Supreme Court and Congress. :(

hahaha holy shit

Do you remember this dude?

Yeah, we had a class together and he dated a friend of mine for a while. We were never like super tight but we had a lot of friends in common. He was friends with 3rica too.

I'm so glad that no one from any of my high schools is ever going to turn up in Chicago.

I pretend they all live in myspace fairyland (except for Sarah).

Hi Sarah I was going to tell you something but I forgot it again.

Oh yeah it was that I think maybe the repost limit on Craigslist is 48 hours, not a week, so I might be able to repost my ad tonight.

Not very interesting I guess.

I think I need more coffee.

It IS interesting, Nick!! I was actually wondering that this morning!

OMG!

Wow!

(The silliness is directed at myself, not you.)

I have a ton of shit to put on Craigslist. I should actually use Chicago thread to sell things too!
