I made it through winter. Everyone said Chicago winters are terrible and the worst thing ever. But it was easy.
No one told me that spring is what kills you.
It's been raining and raining and raining and raining. I just need some sunshine!
See the thing is, where I grew up in California, winter meant rain. I made it through Chicago winter, now that it is springtime, I have to make it through California winter as well. It's all a mean trick. Do I look like I want two winters? No!
I've been contemplating going to get a spray tan, in the hopes that it might cheer me up, however I have absolutely no time for happiness right now.
It was nice knowing you. If I don't make it back from Chicago, it's because spring killed me.

Nine
Tonight I learned of another couple engaged to be married.
So... Nine, I guess.
Thankfully, I've been doing a pretty good job keeping to myself this year and staying out of the social scene. This means I don't have to attend all of these weddings and bridal showers. Can you imagine if I had to buy a gift for each couple for the wedding AND for the bridal shower? Can you? I hope you are doing the math, because that would be ridiculous. Ridiculously expensive.
I have a long discourse about wedding presents and the showers and registries and the what-nots that are involved in the getting married process but it isn't quite at the point of publication yet. It involves largely my financial role in the lives of people I'm just "what ev" about, the idiocy of certain techniques some couples take on in the registering process, and how when it's my turn to be married, all of these people are going to be long gone.

Harry
I just finished reading the 6th Harry Potter.
I've read it before, but that was a speed read.
This time i got my hands dirty and now am emotionally distraught. The first time around i was relatively stoic, but this time, oh man!! Harry and his problems have been tormenting my brain. I finished the book around 6:45 pm, and have not really stopped thinking about it since...
Oh man, i need to go do something... I gotta shake this.
