Of political corruption and bad weather
Feeling a bit better - knock wood - just in time, too, because my boss will be in town for the next two days. Even though I know he likes me and finds me to be good at what I do (people don't tend to hand out commendations and bonuses to substandard employees) I'm still feeling some pressure to be extra-fabulous for the next couple of days. On the heels of a nasty illness, that's twice as difficult.
The weather in Chicago is...unpleasant, to say the least. My relatively short walks to and from the bus on the commute home were spent trying not to slip and fall and not to get blowing wet snow in my eyes or up my nose. Winter is here, and I am annoyed.
You may have heard about the governor being indicted. I can't say this surprises me; the shock was that he was so blatant about his corruption. I suppose that shouldn't come as any surprise either.
Was going to write about Christmas, but decided against it...would take too long and I want to lose myself in a book for a while.
Headache. Oh no.
I hate this. Am giving serious consideration to moving away, and a good 80% of it is due to my loathing of winter here.
