doomed: the diary of an hourly partner

a good weekend, a long blog.

my mom was here this weekend, and it was pretty great. too bad chicago is so cold. not only is it cold, but it also forces you to be outside a lot. walking to the train, walking from the train to wherever you're going, and, especially if you're downtown, walking outside and then into every individual shop. it was cold.

but it was also weird because we went to places like nordstroms and the water tower place and it just makes you realize how broke you are. those places have some expensive shite and no way can we afford it. also, it was just weird going to those places. normally, if i'm downtown, it's either to go to work or to see superMike or something like that. i don't actually spend time shopping around or anything. so it was almost surreal. maybe touristy is the word.

i've decided that my blogs are too long. not to mention they were getting too sad and stupid.

love, kate
