Congrats on the two offers. I think you should definitely go to Chicago, although I assume that your highest priority is "proximity to Jonathan Hurst" so that is probably where you will end up anyway.

I had a busy weekend. Saturday I was at high school swim meets all day. My team is so big this year, I split them up into junior varsity and varsity teams. But at least that way, everyone had an opportunity to swim. Unfortunately, that also meant I was at meets from 8:30 AM until about 8:30 PM. I was so tired, I couldn't even make it through "Beauty & the Beast" without falling asleep that night. I'm a pretty cool guy.

Then Sunday I ate pancakes at IHOP (critical information for all of you), had a snowball fight with Hillary (I won), and traveled to Pittsburgh for a 311 concert (which was pretty good). Now I am at "work" quite tired and not really motivated. You guys should all be on instant messenger during the day to provide me with additional distractions.

Finally, I had a really bizarre dream last night. Apparently, Kristin Kelly was born with two brains. When she was about five, her head wasn't big enough to hold the two brains, so they had to remove one. But they kept it. Then my dream fast forwarded to present day. Kristin's brain was full, so she wanted her other brain back. But she was complaining to me because she really liked the one she had, and her old brain had been put into a monkey (which apparently was why she was studying monkeys for a while). I am hoping that none of this is true.
