all you have to do is call my name

after learning about all of the sadness that comes along w/ forrest gump and being away from home, i called my support system for a good cry and got a whole lot more.

thank you real big to meg and kess for saving me this weekend from my emotional duress with a lot of time spent horizontal and at the lincoln park zoo. not both at the same time of course, that would be strange.

also, feel better soon and cuddle with the bunnies sweatshirt, it has healing powers

fav quotes from weekend:

if you're already in the bathrrom you might as well just make a poop out of it
-me

you better get off my mother fuckin myspace page
-random man on fullerton

this tea tastes like an alfalfa sandwich
-kess

Growing up we're all surrounded with people who are constantly telling us who we are in subtle and not-so-subtle ways, and I think we sometimes believe them. To put yourself out in the world where the only thing defining you is your own actions and thoughts -- it was such an incredible growing experience.
-movie star i can't remember from indiana jones movie

Chicago feels a little less like a completely different world from home now, and that makes me smile a lot.
