A New Year


I turned 27 this past week. It's a good age. Very mature and womanly, yet still young and attractive. I was a bit worried that it would be a disappointment, being alone out here. But the people in my branch were super nice to remember and send me lots of messages. And, at enrichment, they lit a candle on an éclair for me. (We were learning how to make them). I also went to dinner at a cute Italian restaurant with a new friend here in Chicago. So, all in all, I got enough attention. Now, it's just time to pull things together this year.

And, the ballet...


I went to the ballet last night. It was three short ones by Anthony Tudor, all pretty good. I am just amazed at these dancers. So much strength and gracefulness.

A February Snowstorm



Oh the joys of parallel parking. In the city. In the snow.
