The Person Upstairs

So I'd like to murder my fucking upstairs neighbor. Every morning the guy drops a bowling ball on the floor at about 6:30 am. He's a moron. I have names for him. The main name I call him is Rabbit Eyes because, the first week I lived here he was blaring Jerry Lee Lewis for about 3 hours and what I believe to be square dancing with this lame chick that never comes over anymore. I had to go upstairs and politely ask him to turn down the music. Before he even opened to door from my knocking I could hear him replying to said lame chick "Oh no!! I think I'm in trouble!! I'm in trouble." He opened the door and all I could see were the eyes of a rabbit. All blood shot. I have since seen this moron in passing and his eyes are just permanently red. This guy literally weighs about 100 pounds but walks around upstairs like he weighs about 600 pounds and it's like he's always rearranging his furniture. The guy is a fucking imbecile. I have fantasies about him taking a nose dive out his kitchen window into the alley or getting caught in some gang cross fire that you hear about going on. Why can't this fucker just be in the wrong place at the wrong time. My only saving grace is that he's not home very much but when he is home his racket makes up for the peace I experience when he's gone. I have since resorted to yelling at the ceiling. The fucker has got to hear me...If he ends up dead it might be me who killed the skinny fuck..

Gone But Not Forgotten

So it's been awhile to say the least. A lot has happened since my last post. I housesat for 13 weeks from January to April, found a great apartment in Logan Square, and even acquired a bunch of great new friends. The 'To Do' list is shortening. I'm living my life differently. Closing doors & opening windows so to speak. For the most part I'm pretty happy with my station in life...It could use a few adjustments but, these things take time..Lately, I've been working on spending time with friends, purging my apartment of years worth of shit that I can't even believe I still have and vegetarian/vegan cooking...I have a great farmers market right down the street from me and I love having my own kitchen to cook in...It's awesome..

Also, the thought of going back to college and finishing my degree and applying for the Pharmacy program at UIC is still lingering. The urge is getting stronger. Especially since my efforts to find a serving job in the city of Chicago has been blah..I was thinking that I should stay where I am in the burbs for the time being, get enrolled in school, and get this show started. I'm not getting any younger and I can't sling microbrews and burgers for the rest of my life...I need to take some action..That's all for now. I'll post more when I don't have some delicious lunch in front of me..Toodle Pip..
