Day 21 - Big Scary City




I ventured into the big, scary city again today for another interview. I'm pretty sure I have now spent more time on the Metra in the last month than I have in the last ten years. Maybe fifteen.

While the interview went well, the best part of the day was getting to have lunch with my super fantastic husband. I normally only get an hour or two in the evenings to see him, so an extra hour mid-day was a nice treat. We met in the Great Hall at Union Station...which is a GREAT place to people watch, and to get some good shots. There's a ton of intricate work on lamps, columns, and all around the ceiling. I chose this picture for today, I just thought the top of this lamp was interesting.

In other notes...I arrived home just around the time school was getting out. When I drove past the grade school near my house, there were kids out throwing snowballs at each other. I thought it was nice to watch them frolic in the not-so-frigid temps...really, almost a Rockwell moment. Then one of them missed the other kid and hit the bumper of my car. Bastards.
