– Although yesterday was supposedly a brief day at work, there were complications near the end. I skipped lunch and left around four. I stopped on the way home at the Lakebreeze (?) a seedy burger joint (indeed, the very definition of “seedy burger joint”) right under the Thorndale stop at the Red Line.

In the muggy cover of July ’99, friends and I breached the cargo doors of that abandoned hospital and found that a maze of underground tunnels linked all the buildings together. We found murals, stacks of computers and magazines, dirty and clean linen.

Last night I had the priviledge of picking two brilliant brains about Urbàntasm (I actually convinced the suckers into reading a little!) and I spent a lot of time afterward thinking about this project, its characters and processes and what transpires.

– Good news yesterday: I found out I was accepted at the New School.
– Bad news yesterday: I was rejected from the MFA program at Louisiana State.
– All in all, the good news outweights the bad… especially because I found it out first!

– Another weekend check in, check out. This one involved alternating stretches of laying around and frenzied activity.
– On Friday, I got off work earliesh, and returned up north. Took a nap. My brother was passing through town on his way home from Madison, Wisconsin, and neede a place to crash, but first we went down to visit Jessica.

I am in at:

THE NEW SCHOOL
NEW SCHOOL UNIVERSITY
in New York City

I’ve also been offered a $3500 scholarship per year.

Later on I’ll write about the massively interesting and literary complexes that have developed over the last couple months… but at the moment I’m satisfied with inviting you over to my place tonight, circa 8 PM, for some of Jameson’s best.

– Last night: Scav Hunt meeting. We talked about … …. a…. b… … … … .. …. …. … . … ….. …. … … … …. wo…. .. . …… …. … …. … ..a…. … …. … ….

– This is late. It’s because blogger destroyed my last attempt to write this entry.
– I might have news. Big news. But I’ll wait until I know for sure.
– Chicago St. Patrick’s Day Parade Saturday 3/12, noon, on Columbus from Balbo to Monroe.

Well, here it is. If you’re a politically-minded artist, and you don’t know much about economics, you really ought to read this.

What does Alan Greenspan do? What is the Federal Reserve Board? What causes inflation and how is it a problem?

– Last night was a quiet night in. I spent most of it reading a book, which I’ll get into shortly.
– There’s persistantly little to write about weather-wise these days. The border of the midwestern low front is as far south as the Ohio river, and the winds are persistantly to the north.
