And You Are???

Wow, I am remiss in updating this poor little blog. This little blog that nobody reads. But I have an excuse, I have been busy. The wife and I moved back to Chicago. The last two weeks have been a flurry of activity with unpacking, exploring our new neighborhood, meeting up with old friends, braving the Taste of Chicago and seeing Moby perform there, etc. It has been fun, but this week Laura returned to work which means it is time for me to return to work.

I'm happy to be back in Chicago. I missed the bustle, the lake, the public transit, our collection of friends here. I think I even missed the miasma of the city, the everpresent homeless and dirtiness. A city uniquely condenses the human condition into an experience who's authenticity cannot be denied: we are, without exception, a messy people who lead extrordinarily messy lives. Our best chance of any success in this journey is to live life fully and try to leave a positive impression on all those who's lives we touch.

Eh, I will stop there before this post becomes more about personal philosophy than Chicago. If you want more messiness, check out PostSecret. Don't say I didn't warn you that it is sad.
