Last night in my homeland
Posted by: lifeisbusting on: December 26, 2008
I depart tomorrow, where I will drive out of the driveway of the house, which I’ve called “home” for 25 years, even if I haven’t exactly spent all of 25 of them living here. I suppose it’s fitting that in the 25th year, a quarter of a century, is the year I leave not just [...]
Lions, Tigers, and THUNDERSNOW? Oh my.

So currently I am in the midst of a very heavy weather day in Chicago. Except it hasn’t happened yet.
If one had just moved here from regions unfamiliar with winter weather, one might be calling their loved ones to tell them how much they love them and to pray for them. If one listened to [...]

I’ve reflected on things I’ve done this weekend that might give off the impression that I’m elderly:
Fully obsessed with Sodoku. My mom loves it and I’ve found it to be soothing to take one of her Sodoku books and play a couple games in the evening
Watched 60 minutes

Moving man: “Feels like we’re getting married with me making you sign all this stuff, huh?”
Me: “I hope you have good insurance”
90% of my life is packed in an a truck somewhere, waiting to be pulled off, stored, moved onto another truck, where eventually it better meet me in Texas.
Really big news day

So I don’t want to lament on my state’s fair governor being brought up on federal charges for lots of illegal stuff, not to mention the gov before him? Sitting in jail. Those political machines in Louisiana never had anything on Illinois, I’m afraid. But a couple thoughts from a day, when it truly felt [...]
Does this make me completely shallow

if I find out more about how shitty the economy is from Perez Hilton then anywhere else??
I mean, obviously, I don’t rely on PH for current events but I feel like it’s half celebrity gossip and half “this company is laying off X number of workers”.

But it’s a small world after all.
Tonight I found out that my past is directly connected to my present, and starting in 2009, what will be my future.
I don’t mean this to be cryptic, and it is much less important in words than in meaning. It has to do with people in my life who [...]

HOLY CRAP! IT IS DECEMBER. When did this happen? I am moving in just under 4 weeks and OMG, it is going to go by so fast. Which super excites me and terrifies me all at the same time. I’m going to do my update with bullet points, because I pretty much love the bullet [...]
