i forgot to mention!

these pretty people came to visit me a few weeks ago. we visited the museum of science and industry, walked downtown to see a giant ice sculpture in millenium park, and went to dinner on the magnificent mile. it was very cold for my southern counterparts, but we enjoyed being together.

i am currently in the process of finishing my last assignment before spring break. i'm headed home, where i look forward to some downtime without pressure of national holiday nor pending travel. i've had a good quad, challenging, but not mind-numbing. i'm not sure i'll have the same luxury next quad, but at least the snow might be mostly gone for it. that helps.

i miss you dearly.
