Sean made me do this:

List 5 things that certain people (who are not deserving of being your friend anyway) may consider to be "totally lame," but you are, despite the possible stigma, totally proud of. Own it. Tag 5 others:

1) Everytime I see "Angels in the Outfield" on TV, I watch it all the way through and cry at the end.

2) I made it to 6th place in a Ms. Pac Man tournament in college. I was defeated by a 12 year old.

3) I can recite the Gummy Bear theme from beginning to end. And I do it. A lot.

4) Every couple of years I watch every episode of Twin Peaks. I once did a 72 hour marathon and ate and drank nothing but pie and coffee. Afterwards I had the strangest dreams.

5) Often times I walk around my apartment in my bright green speed-o and do kung-fu in front of a mirror.

Ok, I tag Lindsay

Been a long time!

I haven't blogged in forevs!
So allow me to backtrack a little and fill in the blanks.

The rest of my Mom's visit was terrific. We went on the Chicago Gangster tour. It's just the right ratio of History to Cheese in my humble opinion.

The tour guides ("Louie" and "Southside") dressed as gangsters and cracked jokes as we stopped at some of Chicago's most violent mob landmarks. My kind of attraction.


Halloween came and went and it seemed as if nothing really exciting was going to happen... Until!

I went to Chipotle on Halloween night and everyone had tin foil on their heads. I asked what the deal was, and according to one patron "If you dress like a Chipotle burrito they give you a free Chipotle burrito". The patron was nice enough to lend me some of his foil, so I went up to the counter, asked for a burrito, they made it, and walked away without paying a dime. So it was a happy Halloween after all. I love MARKETING CAMPAIGNS! Yay!

I went to the driving range a little awhile ago with my good friends from Wing Night, Nick and Rachel, as well as my GF, Chrissy.


Nick is a really good golfer. He has a powerful yet elegant swing. A ballet like follow-though. He is so good in fact that the head of his club flew off and made it onto the driving range green.

It was amazing. He had to run out onto the range to get it.


It was a really nice golf club though. (Taylor-Made Big Bertha for those few that might care)



This is the end of the shaft. (As Michael from the Office would say "That's what she said")

And yeah, the big Spertus move. Although it was a crazy busy time, it was free of any major disasters.



Now my life can resume to normal.

Happy Belated Birthday to my good friend Lina who confessed to reading my blog!

She believes in peace and throws an awesome party.

Blogless

I am way behind on blogging because the organization I work for is moving into a new building. So things have been super crazy.

I have a million blogables in my pockets ready to dispense as soon as I have an ounce of free time.

Love,
Louie
