Long day, but I did have a fancy business dinner at Trattoria No. 11 which was tasty tasty.

Hmmm. I need spray paint. Do I really want to go to a SUBURB for spray paint???
A girl I work with at Catch found a free can of spray paint on Craigslist, so one night after work (9PM) she went to the near South side and picked up her paint.

what do you need spraypaint for? isn't jaymc in michigan this weekend? could he get you some?
― colette, Sunday, 16 September 2007 15:25 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah No. 10, I knew I was getting the number wrong. That's the place with the happy hour food, isn't it? I'd go back there.

OHOH! I am totally going to call John and get him to pick up some spray paint!
My toaster oven is "chrome" and the top of it is rusty. It looks gross, so I was going to get some high-heat BBQ spray paint and save myself the cost of a new toaster oven.
The toaster oven is the most completely useful appliance I've ever owned. It's the only way to effectively and efficiently revive french fries.
Eric- what did you eat? I hear the ossobuco is the best thing on the menu.

I bought a new pizza pie cutter since our old one was rusty.

I could of just spray painted it.

we had a good day culinarily yesterday. went up to argyle to a chinese/european bakery for croissants and cakes, and then went to a grocery store up there to get some sauces and things we can't find in whole foods. then to a middle eastern deli by the hopleaf and got a ton of food and took it for a picnic in the botanic gardens. it was so good! some kind of artichoke and parmesan thing with garlic...yum.

A pizza cutter is cheap. Why throw away a $70 appliance when a $7 can of spray paint will fix it?
― Jesse, Sunday, 16 September 2007 16:35 (sixteen years ago) link
On the other hand, I just looked at the toaster oven, and it has way more problems than I first thought. So maybe I will go for a new one after all.
Toaster ovens are one of those appliances that get spattered and DISGUSTING and are really hard to clean.
― Jesse, Sunday, 16 September 2007 16:38 (sixteen years ago) link
I wasn't implying that you throw away your $70 appliance. I was only telling my story. About me, and my life.

jesse, you can get a new one for under $30 on amazon, if there's stuff wrong with it.

I want some spray paint too.
Jordan, if you are around, I am about to email you a sendspace link for some stuff I did on one of your drum tracks to your gmail address.
We went to Orange for brunch this morning. I was not impressed.

I think we're going to go wander around the craft fair now if I can get Sarah to wake up from her couch nap.

Actually Jordan it might be a little while before that stuff is ready to email ... sendspace is being really slow. But I'll get it to you today.

Wait, why can't you get spray paint in Chicago? I'm back, btw, with neither spray paint nor Bell's. But with a Bell's-induced hangover.

graffiti
― Jeff, Sunday, 16 September 2007 19:01 (sixteen years ago) link
In 1992, an ordinance was passed in Chicago that bans the sale and possession of spray paint, and certain types of etching equipment and markers.[28] The law falls under Chapter 8-4: Public Peace & Welfare, Section 100: Vagrancy. The specific law (8-4-130) makes graffiti an offense that surpasses public drunkenness, peddling, or disruption of a religious service punitively with a fine of no less than $500 per incident.

I really want a broad tip marker, but I can't have one, because I will never leave the city.

Next time someone goes to Michigan, bring me back a giant Sharpie.

Get a giant Sharpie in NC. When you go in October.
In the United States Court of Appeals For the Seventh Circuit
No. 93-3969
NATIONAL PAINT & COATINGS ASSOCIATION, et al.,
Plaintiffs-Appellees,
v.
CITY OF CHICAGO,
Defendant-Appellant.
― Jesse, Sunday, 16 September 2007 19:37 (sixteen years ago) link
The Paint people are not happy about the ban.
Plaintiffs in this suit, a consortium of makers, whole- salers, and retailers of paint and markers, contend that this ordinance and a related law enacted at the same time exceed Chicago's home-rule powers under Illinois law and violate the Constitution of the United States to boot. Over the objection of the City, the district court held a trial and concluded, after hearing evidence for six days, that a ban will not work. 835 F. Supp. 421 (N.D. Ill. 1993). The court found that the vandals live, eat, and breathe graffiti, that they are so committed to producing narcis- sistic displays that they are undeterrable--not by fines, anyway.

Well, if you're serious about the Sharpie, I can pick one up for you on Thursday. I'm going to Skokie with Sheila.
Actually, I don't now why Nick doesn't just act as our coyote and bring over a bunch of contraband since he works in Evanston.
― Jesse, Sunday, 16 September 2007 19:43 (sixteen years ago) link
I'm not serious. But they are useful for blacking out markings on boxes to prep for mailing. And they smell good.
― Jeff, Sunday, 16 September 2007 19:53 (sixteen years ago) link
Do they sell spray paint in Evanston? That seems unlikely. But if they do, I'd be happy to pick some up.

I had the swordfish and some grapefruit sorbet and some kind of arugala salad, all delicious. I was in a room with 9 folks, and we fell a little short of the minimum required for the room (we weren't paying for this ourselves), and so we took home a few bottles of wine in order to get up to the minimum that was going to be charged anyway.
Also before-hand I was in Filene's Basement and saw an incredible suit that fit me perfectly (at least the jacket) and looked great -- $1,300 Italian suit on clearance for $240, but I did not pull the trigger. Considering that suit I wore to Nick and Sarah's wedding is 12 years old, maybe I should go back and splurge...

I have been fairly productive today!
-tidied up a little bit
-pulled out winter clothes
-used oven cleaner on toaster oven, saving myself some moola
-went to Container Store and investigated some SOLUTIONS to a certain PROBLEM I've been having
-went to gym--3.5 miles @ 5.5 mph on treadmill, other stuff
-went to a friends house to watch the end of the game (Bear down, y'all). Drank a couple bloody marys, ate a vicodan, got locked out of friend's house, got lifted through window feet-first just as the vicodan was really hitting. Re-attached bars back on windows.
-Was rewarded with another pill. Delivered by throwing across room into my mouth.
I have lots of bumps and scraped places from the entry through the window. I'll worry about feeling those tomorrow.
