YOU SUCK CHAD PENNINGTON! YOU CAN'T DO THE NO HUDDLE. YOU IDIOT!

Just got back from New York. Had a busy week and looking to be another big week moving to a new apartment and all...

My new roommate Karli

My new roommate Nick.

My new roommate and former neighbor Matt.

Cliff at the Two Way.

The Fisher Building.

The Segway Phonebooth.

The LaSalle Bank (Field Foundation) Building

The Rookery

The Chicago Board of Trade.

Food party at some westside gallery

More food gallery stuff

Me in a giant pumpkin patch outside of Rochester, New York.

This is what I was driving in New York. "If you have the means, I highly suggest it. It is so choice."

Sarah and Pete's wedding

Sarah and Pete's Reception!

Tailgating at the Buffalo Bill's game against the Jets. These guys we hung out with converted this bread truck into a party bus. You'll see...

This is the bar inside the bread truck.

Cooking meat for the tailgate.

BILL'S!

Ralph Wilson Stadium

Inside the stadium

There's around 72,000 people in this stadium

USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

After the game, as we headed out of the stadium I met Hall of Fame Center Kent Hull of the Buffalo Bill's when they were multiple year Super Bowl contenders with Jim Kelly. He's about what I imagine Paul Bunyan to be like...

Nice...

The only image I am missing is of the bartender at the wedding. Some short lady who was a bit drunk and hilarious. As we were leaving the wedding, she drove past us and yelled at me "RUM AND COKE!!!!" I will love and miss her forever. Had a great time in New York and can't wait to visit more of the east coast soon!

xoxo,

"I'll Be Bach!"

Sorry I haven't posted any pics lately. I'll have some soon.

I'm going to go on a short vacation starting tomorrow. I'll be in New York from Friday to Monday. When I return, I will be moving into my new apartment.

xoxo,

Mike

My Name In Lights...

NOTE: Monday Night Klub - Chicago Chapter on September 11th @ Cleo's on Chicago, east of Damen on the southside of the street

The Museum of Contemporary Art had a lighting event at their warehouse in the Garfield Park area. The best thing about Chicago is having access to anything and everything you could imagine.

Just outside the main room.

Inside the main room.

I like the lighting in this picture.

Big balls of light.

A nice photo of Bess

John just doesn't take nice photos

Bess and Megan

She looks in wonder...

Bess, Megan, and John

Me and if you look close enough you will notice I stole Conan O'Brien's hair.

Scary movie poster.

A series of scary movie posters.

More surprised than scary...

Okay... We're done...

Bess

John

The amazing thing is that I didn't photoshop this image at all. Bess is the devil...

Look what showed up in my apartment. Cool...

We'll, I was suppose to go play baseball today in Humboldt Park, but it's raining. We'll see what happens instead. More MNK - CC plannin' I guess. See you all tomorrow!

xoxo

Booze Cruise.

OFFICIAL BUSINESS: Monday Night Klub - Chicago Chapter restarts September 11th, 2006. We are looking for a good place with cheap food and drinks. Have any ideas? If not, we'll go to Clio's near Western Ave. on Chicago Ave. Hope to see you there!

Adam, Roberto, Jason, Nick, and Katherine at the front of the ship

Laia

Handsome Roberto.

Dance party!

Miss Megan!

This girl knew how to dance.

Vincent and Megan

Man girl, you dance like a crazy woman! Yeow!

Megan

Kineta flashing gang signs. She's thug

Pam. Sorry Pam! I was sleeping when you came by my apartment the other day. We'll hang out soon.

Adam and Laia. You don't fool me.

What I like about Adam is he's a nice guy who's really relaxed about everything. He also spills alcohol on himself. Much like I do. Adam, you are cool and I owe you $10 for the burger...
