Yer killin me Chicago

The weather here has sucked. Like sucked sucked. Like suck a fuck suck. Like, I understand why people go nut bags suck. Suffice to say as I write this I heard the weather man say we're gonna top out at 50. Wee. Pardon my lack of enthusiasm but cabin fever has gotten the best of me and my gut. If I don't get to stay outside for longer than my walk to and from work I get a little grumpy. As you'll notice this lack of enthusiasm is a theme in the outfits chosen over the last few weeks. And my hobbies have taken a turn for the worse. I am now into contemplating my naval, hunting dust bunnies and picking my toes. Yea, yea, yea I know it's gross but that should give you an idea as to the level of my boredom. Shitty weather does not inspire me to create or communicate. I find myself wanting to move on to the next while working on the present. What do all of these excuses mean? It's simple – I've got a killer story but lack the harrumph to write it. So for now, you'll get a bunch of meh photos. All I can say is when the sun comes back out you better hang on to your potatoes because we're in for a bumpy ride.
