Going crazy

Just a quick post to say that I'm still here, just a bit overwhelmed with administrative tasks at home these days.  I hope there will be a light at the end of the tunnel soon, but in the meantime, we are plugging along.

We did get to spend the weekend in Chicago due to a meeting for my work.  We managed to get amazing seats at the last minute for a sold-out performance of "The Seafarer" at the Steppenwolf Theater.  We really enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone in Chicago.  

Also, I highly recommend the current photography exhibit at the Art Institute: Yousuf Karsh: Regarding Heroes.  An extraordinary collection of photographs of some of the 20th century's most extraordinary personalities!  From Castro to Mandela to the head of the Kita school of Noh drama.  Queen Elizabeth to Albert Einstein.
