AHHHHHHHHIT'S COLD AS BALLS, SON! MESSIAH ON MATZO!
THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT TWO FEET OF SNOW BY THE LAKE! AND MY DORM IS... BY THE LAKE! OFF OF LAKE SHORE DRIVE, IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME!
WAITED FOR THE 171 CTA U-BUS FOR 45 MINUTES, HAD TO CATCH ANOTHER ROUTE. WALK A BLOCK TO PICK UP DINNER (BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT CATCH MY BLACK ASS OUTSIDE UNLESS THE BUILDING IS ON FUCKING FIRE) AND CATCH THE 171 TO GET BACK TO THE DORM.
EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL WE GOT TWO BLOCKS AWAY AND SAT THERE FOR FIVE MINUTES BEFORE SOMEONE CAME UP TO THE BUS AND SAID, "UM. A FEW CARS ARE BURIED BY SNOWDRIFTS AND A BUS IS STUCK YOU CAN'T GET THROUGH."
WHICH MEANS WE HAD TO GET OFF THE BUS AND WALK TWO CITY BLOCKS (THAT'S A BLOCK AND A HALF FOR YOU NON-METROPOLITAN LIVERS) IN 30 MPH WINDS THROWING SNOW ACROSS THE PARK. THANK CHRIST MY DAY IS DONE. I'M NOT LEAVING THIS BITCH UNTIL THURSDAY!
Oh yeah. And my wisdom teeth hurt. I keep biting the inside of my cheek on the right side and it's swollen. And I'm still fat.
Will this get any better?
:'(

So I pop into Saree's room, and she's packing. I ask where she's going. She says it's Fashion Week in NYC (I knew that) and her sister's got her Ready to Wear Spring '07 line coming out. So she's going to class tomorrow, and her parents are flying her out tomorrow night (We have Suicide Prevention/College Break Day on Friday, so she's only got two days she's missing). She doesn't know what to wear, so she's packing all the clothes she owns from Jenny's line and hopefully Jenny will give her something to wear from HER WAREHOUSE.
Her fucking warehouse. Saree's tiny enough to wear anything. And she even looks cute in sweats. She has 65 BBm friends, including Flea's daughter, Clara (whom she went to school with) and Anthony's girlfriend. Maybe Anthony himself? Jared? Who the fuck knows who else.
I WANT TO BE A SPOILED RICH KID FROM LA AND GO TO MY SISTER'S FASHION SHOWS! There is no word for how fucking jealous I am.
I seriously got so depressed, I bought two ice cream bars and ate them. I hate being fat and ugly and poor. Oh yeah, and did I include I hate being poor? Or ugly? Fat, perhaps.
Yeah. Starves self right now.

Steve Bartman, the guy who fucked up the playoff catch for the Cubs three years ago can now show his face in the city.
Now thanks to Bears Quarterback, Rex Grossman, he is no longer the most hated man in the city of Chicago.
Fuck you very much, Rex. Indianapolis didn't beat the Bears. Rex Grossman did.
Congrats to Payton Manning, though. I can't find it in me to hate a Vol. And he's still the best actor in the NFL. And Prince was phenomenal. Clearly the highlight of my night.
Now, onto work.

Bear down, Chicago Bears!
Make every play; clear the way to victory!
Bear down, Chicago Bears!
Put up a fight with a might so fearlessly!
We'll never forget the way you thrilled the nation
with your T formation!
Bear down, Chicago Bears!
And let them know why you're wearing the crown!
You're the pride and joy of Illinois!
Chicago Bears, bear down!
GO BEARS!

I hated this song because I thought it was too cryptic and made NO fucking sense whatsoever and I never understood why people went gag-gag over it. But because I took my Poetry and Being class last quarter and we analyzed some Dylan (whom I also kinda dislike, but mainly because of his voice), I've been looking for deeper meaning in older songs. In a random 3AM discussion with renown Chicago DJ, all around music buff and Shoreland security guard, Eric, he pointed me to this website.
I have SO much more respect for this song. More than you could ever know. See what I mean.
Wow. It all makes sense. Thanks, DJE!
And I'm now living in my 2006 NFC Champions sweatshirt I bought last night. And I bought a NFC Champions onesy/creeper thing for Elizabeth and a pink Urlacher shirt for Catherine. I want my girls to be ready for Sunday. I'm teaching Catherine the Superbowl Shuffle this coming Saturday.

R.I.P, Sweetness! Number 34 forever! The Fridge, Samurai Mike Singletary, The Punky QB (with mullet). GOD this was great! And yes, the kicker has the hat AND the cowbell. That's how you know it's quality: the Bears had the cowbell. They all had surprisingly nice flow! I don't think they played the instruments. The three guys in the back with the pump dance are my favorites, I think.
If they do a 2007 version of this, I can't imagine Brian Urlacher rapping. I can see him doing death metal, but not rapping. It'd be cute though.
Super Bowl XLI: The Chicago Bears and Prince. Can I just die immediately after the game?! Now to buy baby Elizabeth a Bears jersey.

U of C Press Release from Jan. 11, 2007--
January University of Chicago annual Polar Bear Run and Salute to the Sun to be held Friday
...The Polar Bear Run. To mark the annual tradition, hundreds of scantily clad — and completely unclad — Chicago students will dash together across the University’s Main Quadrangle at 2:30 p.m. The Main Quadrangle is located at the intersection of University Avenue and 58th Street.
In its 25th year at the University, Kuviasungnerk, an annual celebration of winter, was held on campus this week. Activities have included calisthenics led by University deans, ice sculpting, a dance marathon and ice skating. The best is saved for last; the Polar Bear Run is considered the week’s grand finale. Kuviasungnerk, an Eskimo word that means “happy times,” is an attempt to cure any winter blues.
And I now present to you... The Polar Bear Run: A Runner's Prospective.
WARNING: This video may in fact cause nausea, but I went into Full Track! mode in the middle of the run, hence the the flashes of people. This is EXACTLY what it looks like when you're running one full city block (maybe more) in 30 degree weather (while raining) wearing only your bra and knicks, a hat, gloves, gym shoes and leg warmers. Don't believe me that people do this naked? Notice the bare ass in front of me at the top of your screen... and yes, hundreds of people line the path to see you run. And if you listen closely, you can hear a bunch of my residents scream my name.
Invalid video URL.
When my sister first told me that this race existed, I would have NEVER imagined doing it. It was a wild adrenaline rush. My lungs were on FIRE, but the buzz afterward was totally worth it.
Yes. I am very proud of myself. Mom got over it this evening before dinner.
Tomorrow's update?

| HAHAHA PHONE! |
[31 Dec 2006|09:37am] |
Best phone convo with Cc EVER. It included much of the following:
-People die. Like... EVERYWHERE. What you see on Law & Order and CSI? All. REAL. HIDE. NOW.
-Stay away from ANYWHERE mentioned in a Dr. Dre song. This includes LA, Watts, Compton and the LBC. Or you will die.
-Some guys have to pass a 12-point inspection before they are "done". Well, okay. ONE guy passes with flying colors. But he only gets the PIN# because you can't recommend bad cock when you have a reputation. But keep it a nice distance away when you test it. BACK UP!
-stay away from my dude or I let you get a nasty chemical burn with Veet by NOT telling you what time it is.
-there really are mosquitoes in winter
-Starbucks doesn't give a FUCK about the po-pos, but they'll give the EMTs on the night shift free coffee if they don't respond to calls
-mini-dresses = shaving above the knee
-leg touching is creepy, but if you shave it, someone better touch it!
-BUY AMERICAN!
-Your surgeon uses the same sippy straw to remove pulverized organs that your dentist uses to remove your spit
-mosquito bites help you increase your bust size
-It's hard to shave your vajayjay when you have a kid. Quick, even strokes. Even though waxing is the way to go.
-Is Jared friends with real celebs? Like... would Jay-Z roll through his party?
-Lindsay is also in Miami, but only to start some drama. The gloves are coming off before the ball drops.
-There are gangsters NOT like Snoop Dogg. Like... real ones. With machine guns. In HOTELS.
-Gay guys know their bras and make up. Seriously. Just scream out that you don't know how to do make up on South Beach and you'll get attacked by 50 of them.
-To Wong Foo... = GREATEST FILM. EVAR. All about Princess Points. But Wesley Snipes made a butt-ugly bitch...
-Moms can be skanks too. But they're not in their prime. They're "reliving their youth". In your underwear.
-"Awww! Shannon! That's so sweet! I admire that! But don't worry. Mama'll be gentle...."
-El and Cc are Captains of the Matt Wachter Dweeb Brigade. He SO played D&D like in that video.
That's all I can remember. Although the other night consisted of a few more funny bits:
-What the FUCK is a cabana?!
-"You know, with all this talk about $4000 for half a cabana and $8000 for a full cabana, the feds probably think we're talking about drugs... like in code"
-Mind if I have that hors o'deurve?
-How's the cabana going?
-Where are all the girls? The food's still here, but the liquor's all gone! (I can't believe I didn't make a rum joke, but it was vodka they mentioned)
-"We can fit... 16 girls in this cabana!" "No idiot. 14 plus us." "Who the fuck is going to count?! It's your party!"

Discovered the VLC Player has a snapshot feature, so I loaded up my RHCP Video hits DVD and went to town! Got about ten new icons!
This has to be my favorite, from the "Can't Stop" video, Anthony Kiedis humping the bass drum.

Back in the APT. Being on dial-up was killing me. I'm a little sick of the ham, turkey, mac and cheese, candied yams, etc. that I ordered some maki rolls and going to town. Death by sushi is the way to go.
I SAW DREAMGIRLS TODAY AND OMGSOGOOD. Jennifer Hudson (a Chicagoan, bee tea dubz) was AMAZING and Eddie Murphy played one hell of a character. Jamie Foxx was great and Beyonce didn't ruin it, thank God. But I love that musical. Siiiiiigh.
I've been digging the hell out of Robin Thicke's new single, as well as the whole album. He's got such a unique style, it's quality. I think I've got a serious thing for hot white boys with soul. Although, Robin reminds me so much of his dad, Alan (yes, TVs favorite dad, Mike Seaver), it's a little creepy. But he's hawt as hell. If you want to take a listen to this album, I'll upload my favorite three tracks and lemme know if you like it and want the rest.
Ummm... I've got one more Christmas gift to give out. So lemme get to that. And make random icons.

As I recall from my reading Scar Tissue: The Autobiography of Anthony Kiedis, his soberversary is x-Mas Eve. Seeing as how it's five hours into X-Mas eve, I will throw up the AK icon and and continue to wish him good luck and prosperity.
Maybe I'll PIN Saree and tell her to tell him I said so. All stalker like. Decides against it. I always laugh when I think about how I finished reading the autobiography last year... on X-mas Eve. Mad fitting.
And OMG, if only CBS had quality programing, I would have seen this when it premiered two weeks ago!

Okay. Recap of last night. ( Kinda long. Start here. )
SO! I'm on Tyler's website (with the most ADORABLE NAME)! The photo he took at Debonaire, the last afterset where Jon DJed, is right here. I linked Emma to it and she had this to say: "You look adorable and I look like death. *sigh*" In her defense, she was really sick. Fever and like no voice, and still partied like a rock star. So it was funny listening to her and Mat (who was also sick and lost his voice) trying to communicate over Jon's trance/80s new wave.
DISCLAIMER: If you HAVE to take the photos from Ty's site (LOOKS AT CRYSTAL, ESPECIALLY), PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE credit Tyler Curtis. He's an awesome photographer and really talented and is good people and is making a living like the rest of us. So please, credit the man's shit. I even credited that picture to him when I added it on my MySpace.
Hm. It's kind of different when you know a photographer personally. Oh well. No mercy for Mars photogs.
WAIT! Kris showed me another one on Ty's site, from the 30 show in Madison, WI this summer. Clearly Mat's on Kris's shoulders for a reason. Follow his line of sight.... that's right... Mat Devine just wanted a better shot of the ladies. POST water bottle incident. The horny fucker. I love him.
