2 Chicago-Style Hot Dogs Eaten

I drove down to Chicago with Lucian this morning. My brain had the structural integrity of a goddamned damp sugar cube right now.

Lucian and I made plans to meet up with Sean Michael down at the Skokie yellow line station this afternoon. We got a little lost, because my GPS is awful, but we found Sean Michael eventually. We ended up at a dispensary first which was kind of the plan for Sean Michael. And then we went to go find something to eat.

I wanted to find somewhere none of us had ever been before, and that wasn’t some big box chain. Nothing like McDonald’s, or Taco Bell, or anything like that. It was more, wanting to find a dive that had good food for fairly cheap. The place was called Herm’s Palace! Super delicious food. We will absolutely have to revisit them soon.

In other, mildly ridiculous, news the reason I’ve been having so much trouble, falling asleep the last day or three is because when I lay down, I think I’m by the drivers wheel. No, I don’t know why, whatever brakes are in the dream car don’t work. Just flat out don’t work. The other thing I seem to be afraid of is car crashes?

It’s just kind of weird how Sean Michael went to be those brilliant people I know to someone who can’t be bothered to do anything.

Anyway, my day is over with. I’m in bed with a heating pad on one hip. But I need sleep.

Take your meds, folks!
