I hope to get around to backdating some entries for the past few days at some point, but it's easier to just start from today, at least.
Been at the parents' house since the 24th in the early afternoon. Recognized serious allergies occur in this house. I thought I was getting sick, but the Claritin dose made me 80% better, so I'll happily chalk it up to allergies rather than actual illness.
We spent the morning at Intelligentsia, where the scones were sadly not delivered this morning. They're my favorite scones in Chicago. Drank mocha, did some Scrabble flashcards, bemoaned my stuffed up state, bought coffee beans for relatives' holiday gifts. Stopped at CVS and bought miracle drugs and lotion-laden Kleenex, then did the rounds at the local bookstores, picking up the calendars for the year, and some holiday cards. Yay sales. A stop at Char Dog (Weiner's Circle) for the second time this trip, and then back here. I hope to spend the day lounging, reading magazines, doing laundry, and then out to a fancy mostly-vegetarian meal at Green Zebra.
Thank goodness for vacation.
