I should be going to work right now. But I was home sick all day yesterday, and I after I went to Pilates I knew I needed to come home and sleep a bit longer this morning before going into work. This cold has got me so exhausted all of the time. I'm ready to be healthy again!

I am staring out my front window at the Catholic school across the street, through the wavy old-fashioned glass (I don't know how old the windows are, but the house is 103 years old). It looks like the sun might be coming out again today. At least it's been sunny the last 3 or 4 days. This has been the weirdest Chicago January ever. After a bitterly cold December, we've had temperatures in the 30s-50s all January. With almost no snow. I like the sunshine but the unnaturally warm weather is kind of eerie, especially since our drought from summer has been just getting worse with the lack of snow.

I haven't really got anything exciting to write about here. I'm going to drive to Indianapolis tomorrow to celebrate my best friend Carmen's birthday with her. She'll be 27. That's 15 years of being best friends!!!

And Melissa, my other longtime best friend, (I became friends with her just a couple of months after getting to know Carmen) has at long last returned from Russia and other foreign parts and is making a new home in San Diego. Now THAT'S someone I have to go visit. Apparently her new place is just up the street from the beach.
