Sunday Rain Day

On one hand I had to walk through this earlier today to get to the train station three blocks away.  I'm supposed to have Sundays off now, but Seth decided to have a staycation.
My umbrella was given away a couple weeks ago. Caitlin decided to give it away to a customer one rainy evening, unaware that it was mine. Promises of a replacement have not been fulfilled yet, so I'm drentched. Luckily my denim is pretty thick and my phone remained relatively dry.

On the other hand, I really doubt I'm missing out on 'park life' or celebratory BBQs.

Birth Date with Davi

A few weeks ago I spent the entire day with my wonderful friend Daviel (I wish I could hyperlink from my phone app!). We spent most of the day at the conservatory in Garfield Park.  It was a magical day full of nature and color. This photo came out looking like it has a filter but it doesn't, which means the room we were in was just radiating with green aura. Awesome.

Here's a garbage bin that's not supposed to be. Your junk food left overs gotta go somewhere.
Found at the intersection of Milwaukee and Fullerton.

So, the computer i was using stopped working.  I got home from work one Wednesday and got a blank grey screen with a flashing question mark in the middle of the screen followed by a defeated clicking from within.  This is the second computer to poop out on my in 13 months.  My powerbook had some sort of faulty connection problems that fried the mother board.  When i moved into the new apartment Mel left her old computer behind, she was moving to Canada and could only take what fit in her rental and the screen didnt work.  Bam, working computer, all i had to do was connect it to my tele and i had my very own personal entertainment system.  It was a nice, wonderful 3 months of winter hibernation.  I sure caught up on a shit ton of movies and shows i was behind on.
The day after that second computer pooped out i went out and got myself a fancy new smart phone, my previous phone couldn't hold a charge and would shut down while trying to text.  It was the pits.
So my blog endeavor has hit a bump in the road.  Apologies and stay tuned.

Saturday with the family

I unexpectedly partied with the Espinoza clan last week: I haven't been that hung over since NYE.

Smoking in the sun

Heres a photo I took this afternoon

This postcard i found on this week's Post Secret is horrifying, yes. Honestly, the lady sounds like a dumbass.  In order to get her point across she needed to marginalize those who aren't white, educated and upper middle class.  Is it expected from us?

I still have an enormous amount of sympathy for her, no one should ever feel stuck in a situation like that.  Her passive classism and racism isn't very charming, but we should still wish her the best.  Yes? yes. 

I saw someone else do this, and i thought it looked fun.
Fuck. Marry. Kill.
Who would i Fuck, Marry or kill
New Mutants version

Marry.
Sam "Cannonball" Guthrie, he grew up on a farm, southern and has like a dozen siblings...well, had a dozen siblings. His southern farm bred naivety is pure charm and his ambition to grow up to become an X-Man (which he has done) is endearing, and also made him the best damn leader the X-Men may ever have.  He's like Cyclops, only without the childhood psychological trauma, Add the fact that marrying him would make (Gen-X'er) Husk my sister In-Law.  DREAM.

I'm so awkward i can't even do a cool super hero pose.

Fuck.
Roberto "Sunspot" Da Costa
He's a bit of a ladies man, so his bedside manor can go both ways.  It could be amazing or amazingly disappointing.  He generates heat from the sun...and my loins.  Huzzah.

Manly hairless chest and flaming fist.

Kill.
Warlock.
This is actually the hardest of all three choices because i adore all of these characters, but this is obviously the most obnoxious. The Techno-Organic alien who's mutant power is the idea of freedom and empathy.
Originally, his race are warlords who assimilate and conquer their captives, Warlock fled that when he began to value the 'life-glow' of a living being. He's fun, but he's also like that clingy friend that never goes away and eventually all you want to do kill him.

Query. Why does friend-Raphael want to dim self's life glow?

So, there you go. My totally irrelevant Marry/Fuck/Kill New Mutants version.
