I’ll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I’ll take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and breakaway

BioNew Yorker who's been in Chicago since 2003 (wow, time flies). Maybe at some point I can call myself a "Chicagoan", but not yet.
Likes travel, sports, intelligent conversations about most topics, games (cards, board, and otherwise), ethnic cuisine, and American history, among many many other things. Some recent highlights include running the 2008 NYC Marathon and a trip to Central Europe.
Currently happy, period. Sometimes it takes going through a bit of hell to discover a bit of heaven. Otherwise, I'm pretty random and my journal is rather haphazard. I might talk about my day, rant about something I saw on the street, discuss the meaning of life, or delve into my past. It's my journal, afterall.
Friends-only for now, but am open to newcomers. Feel free to comment and I'll check you out and probably add back. I tend to sometimes be lazy on commenting, so if you expect daily comments please don't add me.
