In Santa Monica

Teh lady and I have arrived. We got in late Saturday and have been spending most of our time trying to make our new place feel like home. Our big items won't arrive until next week...so suitcases and plastic everything. Santa Monica is unique. I don't think it's quite settled in where we are, what the people are into or any of that sort of thing. The weather as expected is surreal. We wake up anticipating some sort of rain or extended overcast. Nope. It's yet to feel hot simply relaxing. We haven't gone a dinner without a glass of wine. It does seem easy to enjoy this all too much. We're without internet for maybe a week or so. Apologies, but we hope to get a provider in the door sooner than later. Once we get our stuff set up it'll be back to usual and full of rage (some things don't change). It's all happening! I am Frank Chow and I approved this message

And we are off

It's been an amazing five years Chicago. Thanks for all the memories, you'll be missed.( I don't have internet at this moment, so this is a phone post, forgive me for keeping it brief. ) California I hope you're ready. Frank Chow lands tonight. I am Frank Chow and it's all just beginning

The drive by my lonesome yesterday in the miserable weather was not fun. I enjoyed the car much more than previous rides, but holy hell country roads are a bitch. On top of that the train was packed. I keep forgetting it's Memorial Day weekend...probably a good thing. I digress, tomorrow we hop on a plane to move to California. It's been a long lead up to this life changing extravaganza, we're nervous, excited, pumped, ready and blessed. To you California peeps, I look forward to partaking in the sunshine, returning to my natural skin tone and SURF'S UP DUDE, let's get a drink or two after the lady and I get settled. Here are your highlights: They had 24 minutes ...science and technology are wonderful things, wish we could spend more money on these sorts of things.

Well, I'm on the road most of the day. I've got to drive the car to my lady's parent's place in Central Illinois then hop on a train back up to Chicago. Gonna be a long one. Last night we went to our favorite spot in town Blue 13 with our good friend Sterno. I arrived a little early to see what concoctions their General Manager/Beverage Director Dan might come up with for Ransom Old Tom Gin . Alas, they had run out the night before! (people are catching on, I must do something to keep precious mine) So instead I went with the Small's Gin, followed by Rogue and finished with some Hendricks. Each cocktail was unique and done just right. As for the food, you can't go wrong with lobster pizza, and a pork chop from the rock gods \m/. It was great to sit down, chat, enjoy some drinks, some fantastic food (we even got Sterno to try brussel sprouts and bacon) and to top the night off they played Manchester Orchestra. I'll miss this city, especially because of night...

Get Your Dunkin Wednesday

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news , world news , and news about the economy Last night was a celebratory Drinking Liberally and boy did I drink. The only downside to the entire night was the depressing loss by the Bulls to the Heat . Conclusion; everyone in the bar hates Lebron James. HATES! We're off to California on Saturday, I'm counting down the days. The place is cleaned up and down. Only thing left to do is drive the car to her folks which I'll be doing tomorrow. Hopefully the weather clears up because I hate driving in storms. At least this time the car is equipped with satellite radio and kick ass speakers. Boom baby! Here are your highlights: Democrats: We’ll Use NY-26 Medicare Formula Around The Country , Congrats to Kathy Hogul! Been a long time, Resolution of Regret for the Chinese Exclusion Act Portis to the Giants? Minnesota should be ashamed, hopefully the people send an "F You!" to their members Compassionate conservatism . Cantor wants spending cu...
