This morning before 10: Finished and froze 4.5 quarts of soup stock Cleaned out the freezer (anyone else end up with a 1/4 baguette leftover from every dinner party?) Borrowed parking pass from neighbors and got kisses from toddler Took bus to Metra to Evanston - Davis Street Enjoyed the bejeezus out of 16 minute train ride with book Coffee and an almond croissant outside at Bennison’s (pictured) Hug and car keys from brother Drove south on Lakeshore Drive for the first time in probably three years on a stunning morning- windows down, radio up Parked at home, dropped off the jacket that no one in Chicago will need today Train in, ran into friends en route to work Into the office on time and the first email at my desk is about carpooling to Wisconsin this weekend The day could always take a turn. But here’s to liking the look of things and being earnest to the point of annoyance.

That feeling when your best friend moves out to live with the (fantastic) man she’s marrying, your oldest buddy is a few days from becoming a father, mortgages are a legit subject of social interaction, and you just ate cheese for dinner.  I don’t have a GIF for it, just making some notes.
