blackbird singing in the dead of night
A new whole food opened up 5 blocks from us. It is about 2 blocks closer than the other whole food. it is quite a bit nicer. First, it was not busy today at 11. The other one is crazy at 11 on mondays. the parking is much better along with the elevator. the store is huge. We could definitely walk there. And I would have, except that i wanted to take the puppy and she can sit in the car, but cannot sit alone out front.
Papers take FOREVER to get through the review process. I submitted a paper (basically half of my thesis) in May. I logged in to change my e-mail address (as my NU one finally expired) half expecting that the paper would be out of review, but no, my memory of 6 months is right. Though, as i said as we were slow in submitting, that a later publication date is better for my CV. I'm trying to figure out my timing from here - when to go back to class in order to minimize a gap on my resume for another kid. I also think about getting a internship summer that is more applicable to my goals. I have lots of time now to look and bother people, so I have no excuse. I would like to stay in chicago, but the upside to ben being a teacher is that he is off this summer and we can go somewhere else (as long as we can take the dog and cat).
this is my current dream - we'll see. I'll be honest, I can't imagine making any sort of decisions with my hormones still settling and my sleep still interrupted.
