Last weekend Allison and I took a trip with friends up to Wisconsin for our last fall adventure before it got too damn cold. As usual it was so magically perfect that I had trouble coming back to the city.
My days have become the vessel of an inevitable end. One that will consist of a tightened noose or the crimson blood of my one love. She suffers and I cannot bring myself to let her go.
The world has changed. I see it in the water. I feel it in the Earth. I smell it in the air.
It's "Bike to Work" week here in Chicago. A fun unofficial city wide event that is supposed to help get people out of their cars and onto their bikes. It's a great way to stay (or get into) shape while putting in an effort to save a little bit of the environment.
I bike to work year-round, only stopping a few times because of unforeseen problems. Like when I got crashed into, had to have my bike repaired, and when I hurt my knee. This week I see more riders on the road than I do all the rest of the year. It's nice to know that while I make a special effort to ride every single day, there are people who usually drive making that special effort for at least one week out of the year.
At the end of the month Allison and I will be moving into a new, nicer apartment. It's very exciting and big step for us as a couple. The only problem is that we've been having trouble with the rental company. They're very dodgy with any questions we might have and today I tried to drop off the security deposit and couldn't find their office at the address they gave me.
I'll admit I'm a bit paranoid of a person but Allison is starting to get worried now too, which worries me :/
I'm starting to think that I need a separate blog for all my build projects.
WHERE WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO VISIT ON YOUR PLANET?
That's a tough question. New Zealand is very high up on the list for me and my girlfriend but there's about a million others on there too.
I live for the outdoors but pound the city pavement. My wife and I wish our cat and dog would get along.
