Once again, thank you to everyone for all your sympathy and well wishes on my grandma. We’re doing ok with it so far. She had a good, long life. It’s hard to argue with that. I think the most ironic thing is that while she is the grandparent I held onto for the longest, her [...]

Nilsa is moving. She has quite an awesome loft in the South Loop, if anyone is looking. I saw the pictures of her listing and asked her “Did you have to stage it?”

I’m getting my haircut tomorrow. The last time I got it cut was before my birthday. My birthday was in October. This is what I do: let my hair go for four or five months or so, start thinking about getting it cut, then finally unearth the salon’s number on a Monday, remember they aren’t [...]
