Things That Really Chap My Ass
1. The word "President" next to the word "Bush."
Wendi and I (and by "Wendi and I" I mean "Wendi") procrastinated too long on gettting tickets to the Counter Inaugural and now the buses are all full, fool. So unless something comes up in the next couple of hours, looks like we'll be ignoring the inauguration on TV.
2. Hat hair.
3. Imminent Brown Line CTA station closures.
Apparently the president of the CTA has decided to just close down each Brown Line station as the city makes improvements. This means I get to pay $1.75 twice a day for the same shitty service and I get the privilege of an extra 8 blocks' walk to do it. Wow, what a deal! You know, if the CTA is so freaked out about their budget that they're threathening reduced schedules and higher fares, then maybe adding escalators to Brown Line stations isn't, oh I don't know, a hugely pressing concern. You think?
4. Joanna Newsom.
The indie scensters fall all over themselves loving this chick. Not only do I not get it, I REALLY WANT IT TO STOP. For the love of GOD, woman.
5. Winter.
6. The Cubs.
First they get rid of everyone I like. Then, in an obvious effort to further confuse fans, the Cubs decide to remove the players' names from their jerseys. What? Now how the hell are we supposed to know who anyone is? "Woo! Nice catch, Mois-- uh, I mean ... new ... right field ... guy! Go Number 17! Wait, is that a seven? It is? Nice catch Number 17. New Guy. Whoever. Hey, does anyone see the Beer Man? I'm parched."
7. Cats.
