i saw someone get shot today in the chicago neighborhood of chatam. needless to say, it put a bit of a damper on the fun times my father and i (yes, you heard right, my father and i) were having. we looked through old photo albums and laughed at the terrible sci-fi show that we were watching. and, plus, today was such a beautiful day, it all just seemed to fall in the place...well, mostly everything. all in all, it was a good day, and i am shocked to say that i feel really good right now. i have completed two books in just as many days (including the bell jar, which almost made me very unhappy (because i identify with that girl so well), but i quickly rebounded), and, of course, that trip is only a few short days away. good evening to you all.
