About me:
I like music. Just not your music. But I will come see your band if you put me on the guest list. And I will stay if you buy me beer. I will be your friend if you have a hot sister. I will mow your lawn if you have a hot mom. I will beat you up if you have a hot girlfriend. I will pay you $1.50 for a hot cocoa.

Hello!So this is my last time checking everything before I move over to the Lincoln Square area for the next 2 months, then I'll hopefully be moving to a place I'll stay at for the rest of the year! I'm finally in Chicago I'm not leaving anytime soon! And yes we should get together and hang out sometime :)

Hey! It was cool running into you this weekend, sorry I didn't say hi right away it took me a minute to realize it was you! I'm going to be in the DM area when Dick Prall plays DM in August, maybe run into you again then.
