Found an apartment with amazing roommates. Four bedroom place in Lakeview.
So excited about it I can’t contain myself. Brb going to explode.

What I’m sure of is that you can’t be happy without money. That’s all. I don’t like superficiality and I don’t like romanticism. I like to be conscious. And what I’ve noticed is that there’s a kind of spiritual snobbism in certain ‘superior beings’ who think that money isn’t necessary for…

Pitchfork
Pitchfork Festival was awesome. I met 2 random hipsters on the el and we became best of friends. One was Sebastian, the other was Isabel (yep, serious).

Can’t wait for Lollapalooza.

I think my biggest problem with your argument is your fundamental premise that coherent philosophical worldviews (if I…

Remember
The reason this weekend is important has very little to do with America’s Independence Day.
Tour de France starts tomorrow. Be a patriot, and cheer for Lance, Leipheimer, and Vande Velde.
