I blame J.J. Abrams
The first clue were the three helicopters hovering above my neighborhood this morning as I left my building. Next were the trademark blue “City of Chicago” sawhorses lining a street corner on my way to the Montrose brown line el stop. Once I was just west of Ravenswood Avenue, I experienced an oddly brown mud/ice [...]

8/31/03: It was a very fun night– but way too short. It rained all day, and I ripped a two-inch hole in my dress (on the front, no less) before I even left my apartment. These things are apparently good luck. Which is great because [...]
