Chicago skyline and Mike Jordan's two boys

Here is my cousin Olivia gracing the Chicago skyline. Happy upcoming graduation OK. I just realized my cousins initials are OK, pretty cool. Let's swivel back to the more mundane matters of this mechanical life. I worked extra late in a futile attempt to finish an Indesign project to no avail. Then I waited whilst 5 cars of drunk, red and white clad Red Sox fans emerged from the darkness that is the Arlington Street tunnell at 11 pm at nite only to whiz by me a mass of sweaty pores. I ended up walkig to Park Street. Then I missed my stop at Porter and got at at Davis. I thought the next bus to Clarendon Hills would be a real long time, so I started to walk - after a quick stop at the 7-11. Purple haired Poseidon sold me my mesquite potato chips, King Size M & Ms and smoothie. Two buses passed me as I sauntered down Broadway to the random shuffle controlled rythmn of Fiona Apple and the Shins. The good news is that my exercise regime kept me from calling a cab. The bad news is that now I am wide awake and should be asleep. I was going to end this post with a Shins quote. But I culdn't find the right one and got too into realizing how surreal they were. So here is one by Lil' Bow Wow: Listen take a few minutes to mellow out The name's Weezy, girls, I wanna tell about How I got them screamin' at the top of their lungs and Let's get it poppin, let's get it jumpin Ain't nothin to the young dog, one yard Chalk's up, soon as I bark, I'mma muns top B-Wizzle, swizzle, is you Crazy baby, I'm rain, them boys just drizzle No more tryin to be like Mike Cause even Mike Jordan's two boys wanna be like I All I ever hear when the girls go by is "WHY AM I SO FLY?!" I don't know, but uh, Uhmm - that might be the first time anybody has ever uttered, "be like I". *** 3 more posts till I hit 600.
