i like the new specs.

when i first moved to chicago, i wasn't aware that on new years eve, some folks think that shooting guns in the air makes sense at midnight, so i spent my first new years eve in chicago on the floor. then, i moved to an area that's considered a rough part of chicago, and has a lot of gang nonsense, so i heard gunshots more often than anyone ever should. the chicago pd even shot a guy right in front of my building. nothing like leaving your house in the morning and finding police tape tied to your fence. all in all, i actually liked the neighborhood. seattle is soooooo mellow compared to every place else i've lived/spent time in.
