Illinois

Leaving Illinois wasn't hard; it just took a long time. I paid my last visits to my Mundelein friends, including Liz and Scott, on my last week at home.

That Thursday I had a jonesin' for some Kingston Mines with my big bro in Chicago.

At which point I pushed Staley off of Starved Rock (not pictured: Kayser, ambulance, myself)

New Righteous 'Do!

That "So long stress" in the background is wishful thinking, but the point is, I got a new look for my new trip, so watch out, World, cause there's a new Nathie in town, and he don't take no guff! And another, thing, don't call me Nathie anymore.

Ch-ch-changes

Today is my penultimate day at Publications International, LTD.

HUZZAH!!!!!

I've got little things and big things to look forward to in the coming days. To start, I'm not going to have to drag myself out of bed at 6:25 in the morning on Monday just to make a train! And, in the long run, I'll have my ultimate destination to look forward to: San Francisco. The move begins next Thursday.

More to come.

Christening

And yea, 'twas a momentous occasion, and the data of the internet rang out in rejoice, for a hitherto absent stranger announced his induction into the vast hall of blogging denizens. This soldier on the artistic front has now made his comings and goings known to the mob, and it is goode. Oh, might G-d! Let us feast on succulent images and text and be merry! Amen.
