He was here!

Jared paid me a surprise visit on Monday night. He arrived while I was out dumpster diving, and when I got back to the house he was waiting for me. I had no idea that he was coming here. My brain couldn’t even process that it was possible when I saw him. I just stood there with a weird/confused look on my face. He’d magically appeared! He even brought me a pack of my favorite candy in the whole wide world, which is the elusive Sour Mamba.

We didn’t have very much time because his ride back left the following afternoon. More than once I referred to it as a conjugal visit because there was always the impending reality of having to be separated again looming in the background.

Monday night we drank wine by the lake like bums and pissed in the sand. Then on Tuesday we drank a bunch of coffee and walked around downtown.

Jared had to be at the airport to meet his ride by 5, so I rode the train with him all the way out to O’hare and back to prolong hanging out time.

Things are beginning to look up for the ol’ Lar and Jar. We are making plans to be together again once my bike shop indentured servitude ends. I am excited about THE FUTURE. So bright I gotta wear shades. There will be cyborgs and flying bicycles.

    I just realized why Lauren is so happy. Jared came with an offering of food. That’s all it really takes.

    Haven’t you guys figured out that you are supposed to set aside your own hopes, dreams and desires so that those of us who use you for entertainment, while sitting at our boring desk jobs, can continue to get lost in daydreams of carefree, nomadic bike travel. We have a lot of time invested in this journey,or what ever, you can’t throw it away now. It’s like Seinfeld just ending. How selfish can you guys be? Your purpose in life is apparent.

        either that or everyone stopped reading the blog, which seems more likely.

          No. I think our throngs of readers have spoken.
