wandering in the cold looking for homeless? is this normal?
This evening we wandered downtown in search of homeless people to whom we could give warm clothing for the (bitter) Chicago winter. No luck, unfortunately, but I got to meet a lovely girl named Daniella who reminds me of a friend of mine from grade school. She lives downstairs, so that's another person (of very few) I know from my building.
Shile came with me this morning to the gym--I think I'll start rearranging my schedule so that she can go, too. Some of us need peer pressure to remember to go, I suppose. It was nice because I felt less goofy trying some new things.
I also made 7 layer bars (graham crackers, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, coconut, pecans, plus some margarine and condensed milk) which turned out pretty well. It hadn't solidified as of 9:30, so hopefully by tomorrow it'll be more bar-like.
Another Friday tomorrow, another exam to give. This one'll be easier. Then we have a CV workshop and a return to Chinatown.
Thanksgiving's a week from today. Barnaby'll be in Akron, too, so I can't wait. **big cheeky grin**
