Excuses Get A Bad Rap

Ok, before you yell at me for slacking off, let me tell you where i've been. Since my last post, i've

1. bought a house
2. bought a car
3. filled out a forest worth of paperwork for 1 & 2
4. been getting ready to move with all the annoying minutiae that entails
5. driven back and forth from Chicago to Madison no less than 5 times
6. been scheduling "I want to see you one last time before I leave" dinners and lunches
7. watched our good friends' two lovely dogs
8. vacuumed up 2 pounds of dog hair that our two lovely dogs and their two lovely dogs shed
9. ran a 10 mile race
10. tasted the best ice cream on the planet. No joke. It's at Southport Grocery and Cafe if you're ever in Chicago. I think about it everyday, multiple times a day. I only wish I had found it sooner. My thighs are grateful that I didn't.

My next post, if you want something to chew on before hand, is going to be wondering aloud about where I want to make my niche in my next job. Everyone needs a niche. Or so i'm told. For now i'm wondering when I can eat more of that ice cream.
