Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, originally uploaded by notashamed.

Wilco has a great album out called Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and they have Marina City--or whatever this is called--on the cover. But of course, they have a lot of great albums out.

I took this during my long walk around downtown last Friday. I was taking photos of the homeless for a class project. One of my last class projects, actually. You see, I graduate tomorrow. Yes, that's right, me. It's something I've been waiting for since I was 4.

Oh crap, I just remembered, now I'll have to get a job.

Monica...

It's the girl that you notice when you're in the airport, and just hope she's on the same flight as you. And then when she is, you just hope she sits next to you. And then when she does, you're not sure what to say! You borrow her National Geographic and she borrows your pen. And then finally when you find your [courage] to talk to her, the flights over, but you talk the whole taxi-ing to the terminal. She offers you gum. Gum. Then when she gets off the flight way ahead of you, she WAITS for you!!!

Did I get her number? Nope.

A last name? Nope.

Email? Nope.

Curly brown hair; brown eyes; half Columbian; sick tat; smiles alot; digs photography. Rather attractive. Rather. I said, "Rather."

Do I go to Rogers, AR to find her?

I got some new photographic toys this week. I ordered an umbrella to shoot my flash through so it gives me some beautiful light and a stand to put it on. It's made me very excited. The first photo tryptic is of Josiah Corner, a friend's baby. The second is me. I've been listening to a lot of music lately and this is very apt.

Last Week's Highlights

A run down of the things I enjoyed last week:

  • A DTR that lasted a whole four minutes.
  • A chaplaincy consult that resembled Clevinger's Trial-- an excerpt from Catch-22.
  • Saturday's Lunch: Bacon Sausage and Duck Fat-Fries at Hot Doug's. Lest you be mistaken, dear reader, the word bacon modifies sausage. Oh, bring on the goodness.
  • Actually finding a research topic that NPU's Library had resources for.
  • New Running Shoes

And the lowlights?

  • The DTR that lasted only four minutes.
  • Not seeing my parents coming back from their cruise.
  • No one showing up to chapel Sunday morning at the hospital.
  • Missing Church, Sunday Brunch and small group.
  • Missing the Bon Iver Concert.

It's been a bit of time. Some new photos for your enjoyment. The top is a panorama of Chicago from the 23rd floor at the south end of Michigan Ave overlooking Grant and Millennium Parks. It's where our community group meets on Sunday evenings. The second is at the Chicago Invite Ultimate Frisbee tournament. My roommate Luke organized it and those are his feet.
