Sweet Home Chicago

As Aerosmith would say, I'm back in the saddle again. I've returned to the place where all things are possible (except outdoor swimming in February) and I couldn't be happier. I've been working hard to get some quality sleep, avoid caffeine as much as possible, and catch up with friends I haven't seen in awhile.

And a belated farewell to Kate, who has left her beloved lakefront running path, to study her brains out in Springfield. Even if you hadn't taken the toaster oven, the apartment would still feel empty without you!
