030 - Gym, wallet, bag, water bottle = disaster



I got to the gym and did stretches. Surveyed my options and chose to go straight for an open treadmill to do a quick 10 minutes uphill at a fast pace. I got on the treadmill and tucked my bag up towards the front of the machine. After starting on my uphill ascent I realized my water bottle was still in my bag. No big deal, I'm only on it for 10 minutes. So I'm going and air drumming to some jam and I notice my feet slipping a bit. Look down and shit is soaked! My bottle popped open and water logged the inside of my bag and soaked everything in my wallet (which had like 30 receipts I've yet to log on my ledger). Fortunately it turned out ok and none of my uncashed checks were ruined.

I used this as an excuse for my second starbucks iced tea of the day. Came home and pulled records for tomorrow night (metal and country night at club foot) and did a few other minor errands. Succescully avoided balancing my checkbook and paying bills for another night.

why "live in chicago"?
Joan of Arc made a record called "Live in Chicago" and I thought was really good with good artwork and good songs. When I started doing this I had envisioned that it would be focused primarily on my home thus "Live in Chicago" became the title. I've always liked it because I've never known if it was "live" like "I live in Chicago" or "live" like "I saw that band live". I live in Chicago thus it's that "live in Chicago". Hi.
