The impeccable logic of my roommate, Andrew Green:

Michael Phelps has kind of a weird body. I have kind of a weird body. I must be a swimmer.

Our friend Danielle turned 24 and had a Texas themed party. We dressed appropriately.

Yee to the Haw.

While in Chicago for Blaine’s wedding, all of us from Seattle went to a Casino in Elgin the night before the wedding. Kenz and I roll deep, so we each spent $2 on the slots. Kenz went broke, but I won a solid $2.50. I went to the lady to cash out and said, “We’re going out on the town tonight.” She looked at me, looked at my ticket that redeemed the $2.50, and smiled a smile that said Aw, that’s cute. And kind of sad.

Classic Jeff & Huong on Flickr

Huong put up more photos of the two of them on her weblog. They make me smile.

I love Chicago. I love the skyline, the pizza, the freaking big jelly bean mirror of doom, the lake, et cetera. We spent all day in the city with my cousin Zach before we flew out of Midway. I have photographs to prove it.

We ate at Giordano’s Pizza, which pretty much puts you in a food coma of delight.

And I want to send out a big internet THANK YOU to Midway International Airport for always being willing, without frustration, to handcheck all of my flim. I’ve had the hardest time getting different airports to not send my film through the x-ray machine. They always try to give me a lesson about what ISO is and how safe their supervisors tell them the machines are for film and how little I know about film.

“Yes, I know it’s safe for film under ISO 800, but I just want to be safe. No. Yes, I understand. Yes yes, I’m sure. But this film is very important. But I just. No, please just let me finish and, no,…here’s my firstborn son, now please handcheck my film.”

But Midway, you go a step further. For this, I will always do my best to fly through you in Chicago.

Heaven & Hell in the same place. Now there’s some theology worth discussing.

HEAVEN

As opposed to Hell. The irony is, they exist in the same building.
