t minus 30 days

just 2.5 more days before my encore trip to seattle wraps up. my international guest has departed, my furniture is slowly but surely being snapped up by the public, and ive had the pleasure of spending a good part of my final hours with a very charming taiwanese-canadian guy who just moved here from chicago. god bless jesuss zany humor!

with exactly 1 month prior to asian bonanza, chicago means four weeks of planning madness. so whats got me most antsy to get on back to chitown? a certain saucy lil señorita who awaits my return.
