Pissing Off 300-500 Million People

I seriously have never wanted to smack a bitch so hard during a tour--fucking Drew Schaeffer having the gall to present a beautiful Buddha statue. I literally have never had to go "THAT'S IT--i'm gonna go pray" and literally go and pray for strength.

today was okay, my last tour is tomorrow and without snotty vase i feel empty. but i guess it should be okay, the tour is only gonna be 4 pieces and its about science i guess
(snotty vaaaaaase whyyy)

then im just gonna shadow the blind tour because karin fucking sucks
and thats that

im gonna go get some dinner and just fume kthanks

Chicago, you crazy!

Oh my god why is it 97 degrees and humid from 9am to 1am?
Lightning strikes, no rain
100 degrees and lightning tomorrow

fireworks from july 3rd to 6th, never thought id see a city that would deem july 4th a week long holiday.

cubs v mets. big lols were had.

best/worst july 4th

dorian and andrew were awesome, i'll write about the good stuff later
right now though i just want to get one thing on the record:

chicago is a fucking cesspool of ignorant douchebags who dont fucking understand what it means to live in a city and i never want to live in such a backwards piece of shit place like this. if youre gonna be a city there are some basic rules you better follow and if you dont then you are a fucking animal.

but let's rewind.

the bad:
the bus ride. people of chicago.

the good:
meeting andrew and claire, dorian's friends, margaritas and brunch in lakeview
target, good steaks
helping dorian with his artistic mural
good steak, egg, salad
looking through the hunter yrbook for all the awk
crazy rogue fireworks
sitting on the big white thing on beautiful osterman beach, watching 6 different people light up fireworks, two of them impressive
besssssttt fireworks show ever thanks to the 1% (aka saddle and cycle club) with 5 different ending fakeouts--is that the end? this has to be the end. no seriously, this isn't the end? i dont know what the 1% are capable of, they should be bankrupt right now due to fireworks. daaamn
MAN, sit down! moment right after the grand finale
grinning from ear to ear, another great july 4th :) (shout out to santa fe musee soft crew)
