Actually he's a straight friend from high school. He was the vice president of a software start up, but he's about to move to San Francisco to work for the Mozilla Foundation.
So, as usual I haven't been following LiveJournal closely enough. Why Chicago?
Because I love Chicago. Been there twice in the last eight months. Height of summer and late autumn. Loved it both times.
I've got friends there, as well. All the most amazing bands come from there (Fall Out Boy to Smashing Pumpkins), it's got history, it's got beaches (which may as well be the sea anyway), it's fucking pretty and I felt so, so at home there.
And I'm sick of England.
(Also: I was kidding about your friend. All the best ones are gay, you know. XD)

May I also suggest he grow his hair back? I know you're not a fan of the longer hair but I for one miss it . ;)

Unfortunately, the only guy I know in Chicago is about to move to San Francisco.
