Haven't been doing so hot lately. I'm off my meds because I can't get in to see my doctor, but she won't renew my prescription without an appointment, but she has no appointments... catch-22, etc. So I keep wavering between paralyzing depression and slow-burning rage. It's not exactly the best situation to be in when you have a full-time job and ( Read more... )

The snow is really kind of beautiful from 7th floor view of Lake Michigan and the city. On the ground, not so much, as I learned on my trek 4 blocks south to the grocery store (and then 4 blocks back north, of course). The dogs were super-excited about it though; they ran around like crazy things outside. Now they're curled up together in their bed ( Read more... )

Sunday was fabu. Spent most of the morning on the beach with the pups, then took the bus a bit north of me and settled down at Metropolis for coffee and reading. Went to CVS and on the way back, realized that Bananas Foster and m.henrietta were right there, so stopped at the latter and had French Toast for late brunch (or early dinner ( Read more... )

My BlackBerry is pretty much dead, so I really hope my Droid Incredible gets delivered today.

Tom, Jill and I went to see Inception last night. Holy shit. GO SEE IT. Before the movie, we met at Big Bowl and there were all these people with babies there. OMG here is a hint: if a restaurant has a bar and/or does not have a kids' menu then don't ( Read more... )

I have gone through three rolls of paper towels since Saturday. You do not even want to know. Vinni did go off-leash at the beach today though and it was hilarious to watch him chase Lillie around. There's some jealously going on between Louie and Vinni over who is getting more attention from me and I think it's causing Louie not to eat. Lillie, ( Read more... )

This has been The Week From Hell. Two of my employees resigned for personal reasons, every day was a 14 hour day and I have a cold.

On the bright side, I went to see The Pillowman at Redtwist Theatre with the brother and sister-in-law. The theatre is this little box of a room that only fits 30 audience members and the play is acted out literally ( Read more... )

Since I was off and today was semi-nice anyway, I took the dogs to Lakefront Park this afternoon instead of our usual romp around Lincoln Park. Lincoln is usually populated by dogs and old people, but Lakefront is mostly walkers, bikers, runners, skaters, etc. It was really cool to stand on the beach in the winter and I think the dogs enjoyed the ( Read more... )
