Looking for a Subletter in Chicago for June and July

Hello Everybody,
There is a good chance I will be gone for all of June and July. I am looking for someone that would want to live in the Uptown neighborhood of Chicago for that time and pay $450 (or best offer) per month. Can't smoke in the place and no pets. You'd also need to be able to at least tolerate my roomie Isaac (and he tolerate you). I'll be leaving May 11 and returning August 17, so the last 2 weeks of May and the first week of August would be included for free.

If anyone is interested, email me at: fiddlerpig at yahoo dot com
Thanks,
-Paul

As Promised

My Haircut:

Haircut

I just buzzed my hair. My roommate Isaac helped. We discussed the reasons I wanted to buzz my hair.

1. I was bored (never a good thing)
2. Easy to keep short hair looking presentable.
3. Isaac bet me I wouldn't do it.
4. Quick and easy weight loss (it's a joke people).
5. Everybody's doing it.
6. I had my hair buzzed as a kid and I missed the good ol' days.
7. I would save the $13 that Great Clips would charge.
8. I trimmed my beard and I felt that it made my head lopsided.
9. I spent $15 on new clippers.
10. It will make people laugh (not because it looks bad).
11. I like people with short hair.

Pictures to follow. We documented the process.

Katie

I am mourning the loss of a good friend. One of my friends here in Chicago has been battling depression and stress, and this weekend, the worst happened. I ask anyone reading this to keep Katie, her family and her friends in their thoughts and prayers.

Using This Modern World

I just read a good article about several different online services. I had already subscribed to a couple of them, I subscribed to a couple of new ones and I was reminded of a few others that I had been wanting to try.

Welcome back sports fans,
This year, unlike most people in the world, I had a 25 hour Christmas. Unfortunately, I spent about 15 of those hours in various airports and airplanes. I was dead tired because of a midnight gig the night before and I was confused by flight cancellations and the airline using standby to get me out to Cortez, CO.
(short aside, Isaac just pointed out that I spelled fiddlerpig as fiddleprig. I'll be changing that as soon as I finish this blog)
I finally did get there, but it was a long trip.
Happy New Year,

-Paul

I just went for a 2 mile jog/walk. I have decided that I am going to start running again. I would like to run the Chicago Marathon, but I'm probably too lazy.
