alright. day one. i haven't a thing to do. i'm at the library. libraries are cool. they're quiet, they have books. they have toilet seats with urine on. they have computers. i do not have a computer. the internet on my phone is so-so.
last night i sleep-walked down belmont to potbelly which was extremely satisfying. haven't had it for a year. they played m jackson songs. then went to the bar for what turned out to be a single beer as i was dozing. faux pas guy was too excited to be at the l and l. a smoking popes tshirt, an alkaline trio hoodie and playing lawrence arms albums on the jukebox. come on dude. after he left the two female bartenders groaned. we get it, dude. it's like wrangling up all the members of your favorite band for photos after the show with forced smiles. dude, cool it. we get it. i get it, believe me. i like all those bands and have done my research too. don't be such a fucking nerd.
i live at western and belmont. my big (for me) bedroom is nice and empty with a lovely view of a brick wall and someone else's window. hopefully they like half-naked chicks doing shitty yoga and painting dead babies. i don't have a curtain. i don't even have a bed. i brought a giant nug in a pill bottle and two bottles of stella, but no bed. and toilet paper stolen from rest stops on 90.
i should find a job. this won't be easy.
haha that l&l story is ridiculous. although i must admit, when i was in chicago in january i definitely went to the northside in hopes of running into brendan.
