home… for now.
file under journal |CHICAGO, IL. it’s been about two weeks since i arrived back home, sick and exhausted and wearing multiple layers of clothes. i have approximately fifteen hours of footage, mostly interviews, which i will be transcribing with the help of friends here in chicago. and i’ll be heading down to new orleans with a friend next week to deliver medical and bicycle supplies and to meet with the Plan B bike collective. the bicycle supplies will be coming from Working Bikes and going to Plan B, and the medical supplies to Common Ground.
it’s been busy here in chicago, though, looking for a job and settling back into the house of raw sugar. i’m throwing a valentine’s day show at my house for a friend i met in denver, screening a the living room documentary outside here in april for courtney and liz, and going to BikeBike! in may to show a trailer for my documentary. right now, the streets are crusty with ice and salt, and i usually wear three or four layers from when i crawl out of bed in the morning until i get back into bed at night. chicago, i missed you.
