Chicago and Kanye

I'm here in Chicago, 11 am in this time zone, waiting to go back to a movie theater that hopefully has found my wallet. Its bittersweet to be back here. The city keeps changing like all things do, and I'm realizing that at some point I'll come back and not recognize a thing. I forget that I'm living in a place that is relatively free of chain stores. Driving around this city feels like being in the parking lot for an extremely elaborate mall that grows and grows.

The new Kanye West is the best album of the year.

Last night, walking home, the streets were quiet and dark, except for the streetlights and the constant rush of cars. We left the theater laughing, oblivious to the cold, and went back to Theo's to watch youtube videos and squirrels dressed as Saddam Hussein.
