  10:35 AM (CST) Mountain like vesuvius! Shoot...it's been another 3 days hasn't it?  Arrrgh. So my mom headed back on Saturday morning.  We redid my living room a lot - new curtains (the old ones were grandfathered in from the lady who owned the house before me and they were crazy-ugly), slipcovers for my ugly couches, and some new things for the walls.  Most of that came from the house my parents are selling in Maryland.  My mom should be in Alaska w/ my dad and brother by the end of January.  Then it's just me in the continental USA.  wild... I'm redoing the "band" room since my band doesn't practice there anymore and the diamond took his drums.  Got a futon for it (very UNLIKE simmasmack's nasty one), which I'll put together this evening.  Also my mom brought some old stereo equipment from the MD house and I set that up in there.  And I have a TV in my room that I never watch, so I'll put it in there.  It should be pretty cool. Saturday night I went to a bday party with the meister and his ladyfriend, up in Momence, IL (near Kankakee).  It was at a bar that had been rented out.  They had some tasty meatballs and chicken wings, a pretty cool band, and a keg of BL Smoothie.  We went to some rich kid's house after, a cousin of someone related to the bday girl I think.  That was pretty cool too I guess, although I didn't really know anyone. I'm not sure if people were mostly older or younger than me, but I feel farther and farther away from that "scene" every day.  People were arguing about music and it was basically a 3D-living-Pitchfork pretention party.  You could have cut the naysaying with a knife.  Definitely not my scene. But, still, it was a lot of fun.  Free party, free ride, good times.  Went to UAG yesterday and then came home and crashed.  Missed Fat City with the Meister and K(S)G for the Bears night game.  Sorry boyo's.  I wasn't feeling so well.  Today....lot of peoples aren't here in the office.  My prelim date has finally been finalized, so I'm going to get back to work on it after a 3-month hiatus.  Some friends were in a car accident but apparently they're ok.  We'll dedicate the next podcast (whenever that is...) to the subject. Arrrggh I still have 3 Podcast episodes to edit. Coach D, where are you!? I need you to 'spice' things up!  And KP, where you at?  The city needs its superhero...
