New Champaign Public Library (and Idle 2 A.M. Ramblings)
Friday, June 13th, 2008New building, that is (see the floor plans). Sorta new, that is. They had their Grand Opening in January, but they’re only just now finishing up the final details.

MemDayWeekend; Fresh Food in C-U
Sunday, May 25th, 2008First gas fill-up in CU: $50! $4.07/gallon! (Though I’ve seen it as low as $3.99 around town since.) Malaika pointed me to GasBuddy.

I drove around: Looked at neighborhoods. Looked at houses. Looked at apartments […]
Margaret Cho
Saturday, May 10th, 2008Went to see Margaret Cho, at the Paramount. Birthday gift from Malaika.
Eh… We saw her a couple years ago, I think at the Moore, and laughed our asses off: One of the best comedy shows we’ve seen, and generally what I had expected for Margaret Cho (at the time, anyway). But this time, there […]
