| 16.2.17 09:30 | |  | #tbt And then there's this one. Amongst the many wonderful things Kris has done for me, maybe the greatest one was volunteering my house as a crash pad for his OTHER friends who happened to be in town at the same time, because there was no other way I could have met Kat. She was here less than two weeks but now it's very, very hard imagining life without her in it. She's a great talker, a great listener, has a great attitude and a very easily seen love of life which is incredibly infectious. She's tiny (relatively) but carries herself like the biggest man in the room and it's amazing. I don't know a single person she met in Minnesota who didn't immediately like her. And I know she's heard this a lot and is probably a little tired of hearing it... but she may have the most beautiful eyes on two continents. I miss her terribly - I miss making fun of her accent; I miss trying to find vegan options for her and being so amused that she finds Cub Foods a virtual mecca compared to the grocerie options in Brit-ain. She changed me - with any luck, I'm not changing back. I think she knows all this and won't be too embarrassed that I'm saying it publicly. These photos at the airport were right before last goodbyes and how I managed to make it without crying until I was back on the freeway I'm not sure I know. I'm on the verge of tears again typing this right now....and now you know why I've been procrastinating. It shouldn't hurt this much not having someone nearby, and most of the time it doesn't, until I really start thinking about it. I hope we have one too many drinks again soon. I'll never take off this bracelet. (circa 1215, one week ago) |

| 16.2.17 09:30 | |  | #tbt I didn't mean to put this off as long as I could, but it's been hard readjusting to life without a housemate after just over two months of him being around, including spending Christmas together, ringing in 2017 at Transmission, and a killer Super Bowl party in the suburbs. He may enjoy Maruchan instant lunches even more than I do. He talked endlessly about the gym despite never seeming to make it out there. There wasn't an airing of "South Park," "American Dad," "Family Guy," "That 70s Show" (but definitely not "Friends") that he'd miss. There were a lot of last minute Wolves ticket purchases on the cheap. I got to take him to the Hexagon Bar for the first (and not last?) time. We saw "Rogue One" but failed to see it twice. I said "no" every time he tried to get me to Ground Zero - maybe the only time I consistently said no to him. He got me to Matt's Bar for my first juicy lucy after only 12+ years here. He got me to Driftwood, but I never managed to make it in time for the singalong. As he did last time, he introduced me to a whole new batch of wonderful people I may have never met without the introduction (sparing everyone a tag here). I put "With Sympathy" on a thumb drive for him but forgot to give him the Depeche Mode discography. I almost immediately regretted introducing him to Frank's Red Hot because he put that shit on EVERYTHING. And, yes, last but not least he turned ANOTHER bath mat purple to make sure I'd always remember he'd been around - as if I would forget! Kris, mate, it's been great stashing you in the spare room and it's hard to put into words how much I appreciate the opportunity to play a role as host during your trip here - I'm sure we'll be able to set something up for the next time. Here's to then! (circa 0215 one week ago) |

| CAR ADVENTURES - THE SAGA CONTINUES: After making sure to sacrifice my Wednesday night to get me to Maplewood at 7am this morning, I was informed that the replacement rim hadn't arrived yet. I suspect they may have completely forgotten to order it as I have been rescheduled to next week - or Saturday, if I'm "lucky." So I'm driving around on the spare for another few days. Yes, I know that all this is a sign to not take care of this and scrap my car completely for a new one and I'm IGNORING YOUR SAGE ADVICE AGAIN BECAUSE I LOVE THIS STUPID OLD CAR AND ALSO SETTING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON FIRE at least it drives like a dream with that spare |
