Just as it starts to monsoon
My brother has been visiting from California for the past week and is leaving tomorrow, but very possibly moving out here IN OUR APARTMENT within two months.
I'm not totally sure what to make of it but I think it will be fine.
My Christmas job is going alright.
I usually just sit in a corner and read when it's not busy, because I don't really like any of my coworkers.
It's mindless.
There are good things about working there though.
I get lots of "free" stuff, mostly things that I'll never use (Christmas lights, expensive candles, soups, etc).
Over Thanksgiving an acquaintance said to me
"Rob them blind, my friend, rob them blind."
Not exactly literal, if you know what I mean.
I've been listening to Sufjan Stevens lately, along with things like Vetiver, Animal Collective Elizabeth Cotton, Pulp, and Iggy.
Recommendations:
Beirut

I went to my sisters (Jen) house last night for dinner with most of my siblings.
She's living with her boyfriend, Mark (Mixin' Mark), who's one of the top 3 DJs in Chicago.
I've met him a couple times before, but never actually had whole conversations with him.
He's a pretty nice guy, I guess. He showed me his in-house studio and his record label (YEAH) and how he makes/plays all his music. And then we all smoked and played intense trivia games. Being a DJ is actually a lot more interesting then I thought, and actually takes some talent. I'm not into techno or anything, but I really respect the guy.
He's good at what he does, he loves it, he smokes weed when he works, and he's making a ton of money.
Remember when I really wanted a nylon stringed guitar?
Well, I GOT ONE. FOR FREE.
Thank you, Andrew.
Dinner and a movie tonight.
The new movie about Bob Dylan!
