  Maybe we can have a festivus for the rest of us on July 17? I still havent met lil emily. I think the Roots are playing in Indy at someplace called the Lawn at White River(? ) Cara, Spoon is gonna be in CHI on 6/25 (I think I burned that cd for you? ), if you're interested I'll get tickets. Life is crazy here. My mother in law and auntie in law arrived on Friday and they are tiny, 4 foot terrors. They are fascinated by the self check out lines at the grocery store and very much enjoy free samples, even when the item (say, a box of unopened cookies) is not a free sample. I guess this is great preparation for when I'm chasing Jr. around. I'm taking them to Arlington Park on Saturday for some horse racing action...gotta bet on the ponies. We're going for dim sum on sunday morning if anyone should be interested in a big festive brunch. Guaranteed to be entertaining...
