(Updated) Seeing John Malkovich, and other things that have happened to me since I last blogged

I really fell out of the blogging routine for the rest of October, but I am determined to get back on it. Bob is the only one who actually requested I do, but it's been bothering me a bit lately, too.

Since I last blogged here are some things that I have done/been doing:

My parents visited. They were here during the B of A marathon weekend. My dad made several jokes about us just running from restaurant to restaurant. He also got a little drunk, I think, during dinner at Bistro Campagne (two Manhattans!) and sang along to the Cars "I Love the Night Life" in a cab at 8 pm. Correction: two different songs. There was a Cars song and then "I Love The Night Life." He was made fun of for singing "I Love the Night Life" so early in the night and for knowing all the words to a Cars song, but both were pretty cute. It was a good weekend.

I saw John Malkovich on the corner of Le Moyne and Damen. He was with a young boy.

I have been working for 3 weeks now and really like it. The people in my office are great. I was in invited to join an elite tea time group that meets daily at 3. I'll write more about work later. As much as I like it, I still don't wanna think about it on Sunday night.

I saw the movie Rachel Getting Married and really liked it. I saw Tunde again the next week at the TV on the Radio show.

I went to a pumpkin carving party and carved this beauty.



I dressed as Cher from Clueless for Halloween.



Overall, I've been enjoying autumn. There are a lot of spooky, tree-lined streets in this city.

I am excited, but still quite scared for Tuesday.
