Still in Naperville... and it's still too awesome.

The people that I know here are so great... they are the life of their town, what makes it beat and I am so lucky to know them. Genuine people, no pretense, no acts. Kind people, who are great to hang out with. You could sit with these people in a white room with nothing in it, and have a great time, simply because they are good company.

Last night, Jill, Ernie, Mike Drago and the Man, Frank Lieu, came over to my pad ;-) (the days inn). We looked at some of my photos, had a chuckle about some things, thought about taking some more shower pictures, then headed to dunkin donuts for some coffee. At around 2am, we left, and I was left feeling pretty great, totally high on the good times.

This morning, I checked out of my Days Inn, got called "Buddy" by the guy at checkout, and then got picked up there by the awesome Ernie, who also took time to drive me to the kmart, to drop off some more film. Right now he's job hunting (good luck man!!) so hopefully he'll find something cool.

But what a fantastic time I'm having here... and it's totally because of the people. You all rock, Napervillians... ;-) and i'm sendin some skeetlove to ya all ;-) and take care all my blog readers (to all... 2 of you :Þ). Skeet.

Another amazing night was had... Frank, Jill, Ernie and myself went to a cool sort of wood... with a waterfall, walked across it, and after walking in the black night, went back to the car, where we got caught by a cop... and he took down my name and everyone elses... I thought I'd be hauled down the jail, passport demanded, my temporary visa taken from me and sent back to Scotland :-p scary.. but he said, oh... don't do it again. And then we headed to another dark wood... walked to a bridge, and just chilled at midnight. Awesome... and I didn't spend a single dollar.

My time here has been really really wonderful... each day completely different but so much fun. And I'm still in Naperville for three more days, but to give Frank some space after staying with him for a week (he's been so great! what a guy)... I'll be in the days in (hint, anyone want to do anything? get in touch :Þ). Then I head on to Champaign to meet with Sheila, and I'm out of the midwest after that... down to the south, where I'll spend some time, meet up with more people and... yeah. But hey, Naperville is like the best place for hanging out. A laid back place with excellent people. I enjoyed meeting every single person, and yeah... can't think of what else to say now. So, farewell for a bit... and when I get into Atlanta I can start updating again. Skeet.

Okay... now I have a Google pagerank, I feel like updating! :) Woah, the last few days have been amazing.... amazingly good, fun, blurry, mad, crazy, awesome. So much fun compressed into so little time :) I've met the awesome Jennie Song!!! And that was a supercool experience, although it was like 2am ;-) at the stake n shake with the waitress who I was worried was about to faint! She got me to say "coffee" so many times. And I've met (and am staying with) the supersuave, superfriendly Frank of the whole Fate empire... one excellent guy... and his friends, who are all great people... too swell :)

I need a haircut though, it's annoying me as it is, it looks kinda wild and crazy if I try to spike it up. So I hope to get it cut today... but hey I've had one heck of a great time. Hey do you know how mad this has all been? Hanging out in an horrificly large supermarket at 3am ;-) hehe.... great there though. So here's kinda what I've done the last few days:

Day 1 - went to the fantastic art institute with people, then eat at Jimmy's mediteranian place... returned to Naperville and just hung out
Day 2 - blurry.... but I think that was the day I went with Jill to do some errands, had a cool time and she kinda got lost looking for a restaurant :):):) then later at night headed to oak park (that right?) and we got some great food and I got cheesecake after
Day 3 - had a superawesome day in Chicago with Jill, took the train went to the museum of contemporary art, then walked around and to Lake Michigan... it was such a sunny day and the water looked wonderful, a green blue I'd never saw before... I got a lot of photos.. and Jill insisted taking them of me on crazy chairs and sofas and next to a sculpture... and I hate having my picture taking :) but hey, it was cool. Then we headed to Navy Pier, went on the Ferris Wheel (woah, high up!!), and after that, got some food, went to the Cultural center, and headed back.. I fell asleep a little on the train, and got back to Frank's and collapsed... woke up at midnight and we headed to Meijer... the large supermarket, for a time, and had a great time, saw a supercool book - Getting Dirty with the Queen of Clean!!!
Day 4 - went with Frank for a wander and to take some video shots... met up with Mike Drago and had a great day, eat at the Olive Garden, and then watched Requiem for a Dream (amazing film.... loved it... gritty, kinda on the edge, but so superbly cool)

And there you go... an update..... :)
