I Warned You...

That I probably would end up apologizing for not posting all that often and thus I deliver. I decided to take the month of August off, because I'm lazy and forgot (So OK not so much an active decision, but eh shit happens).

Ironically enough, (actually probably pretty ronically if you think about it) August was a fairly busy month for me. My next post might be a slightly longer recap of the important/interesting events - but for now here's a brief list of what you missed in the life of me:

• Had a Birthday (where were my presents you heartless bastards?)
  
• Filmed some short sketches (soon to be on YouTube, if I ever get around to it)
• Found the meaning of life (then promptly forgot it after a night of drinking)
• A few nights of Debauchery (fairly standard - except for one night, check my next entry for the gory details... if I remember to write about it - hooray suspense)
• Road trip up to Chicago, Il for improv and silliness (and apartment hunting)
  
• An actual and permanent move to the lovely city of Chicago, Il (I live somewhere in the vicinity of Wrigley Field and the iO Theater now - stalkers, begin the hunt)
• Goodbye parties (so many bartenders in St. Louis were so sad to see me leave)
  
• Enrollment in classes at the iO Theater (yay improv)
• Lot's of awesome shows and other random things I've probably forgotten

It's really the last few (well actually only the 4th to last) which I'm going to briefly talk about here. That's right people I have gone and uprooted myself from St. Louis and journeyed North (like a flock of birds in Bizarro land given the season) to fair old Chicago, Il.
I actually just got moved into my apartment last week (but have been up here off and on since the 21st - looking for apartments and taking classes at iO).
My verdict so far on the city: Love it (but despise at home game days for the Cubs) living near Wrigley field certainly has it's ups and downs (mostly downs when Cubs game just let out and you are foolish enough to find yourself outside foraging for food, or god forbid trying to use public transportation.
Still all in all it's all gravy (mmmmm ... gravy) I keep running into people I pseudo know (and even a few I actually know) at random places. Expect more updates about the windy city in the future and hopefully tomorrow or so I'll post an actual recap about the lost month.

For now I must run grab some dinner then catch a friend's show over at iO. Ciao.
