1) When I speak seemingly random, meaningless phrases like "Follow directions," what I REALLY mean is "Don't bother following directions. It won't fucking piss me off or anything."
2) So, if you've got some down time, pick up some of the Dresden Files novels by Jim Butcher. It's good shit. Wizards and noir and detective work and vampires and other crazy ass shit, all in Chicago. Good times. Plus, Butcher's Chi-town geography is pretty good, so as a former resident of the South Side, I was amused by the scene which featured raining frogs...in Jackson Park. I was NOT amused, however, when the titular character visited a bookshop (which resembles a cross between Powell's and 57th Street books) down the street from the campus of the University of Chicago... in LINCOLN PARK. Sigh. No one's perfect, I guess.
3) I ate a turkey reuben for dinner. It was fucking amazing, especially with the mango smoothie (w/ whipped cream, people!). The smoothie was a must, since it's getting all "summer in the south" here.
BONUS: I'm employed for the summer! I have an office job, and after 4 days of work I haven't been fired! Huzzah!
