quote:
"how you feeling brother?" - the hulk
snow disappears while the sun embraces chicago. and leaves fog. fog the color of teeth. teeth hovering just above the landscape. enough to cause a couple hundred cancellations at o'hare.
breaking record high temperatures by decent margins doesn't exactly excite me anymore... it's kind of another worried thing. the weather guy today tried to make it really exciting that it was so warm and as he smiled his big weather man fog teeth smiled, i sunk further into the couch, held my sandwich a bit tighter before i ate it.
living here is living in the land of stress. i've noticed that everyone around me is more stressed by a longshot than all the other places i lived in the last year. and americans take out their stress on others, quite often. when we are rude to each other, short-tempered, passive aggressive, angry drivers, impatient foot tappers... we all have this stronger veil of "you have to do this NOW" hanging over us, and unfortunately we haven't turned around to look at the veil lately and tell it to bugger off.
take the elections for example. we have the longest run for a leader of our country than any other country by a decent margin. and you can see how hard it is if you watch the debates. the candidates, when not speaking, are propping their heads on their fists. when we ever do end up with a new president, they'll have to sleep the first year of his / her presidency.
may you get some sleep.
fresh
