my random ramblingsan infrequent (and these days, mostly Mira related…) blog

home late, no time for POW! grabbed dinner across Wabash, really cold out already.

dinner back at Fogo, so Лена can eat their tres leches cake. on the way out met little Gio, was fun to watch the 2 of them play. Mira’s favorite word these days is “no”.

mailed 4 boxes to Лена’s family. quick lunch before dropping Лена off for an afternoon class. day spent at home with Mira.

back from Boston, and another busy day working from home. quick lunch down the street at Gage – think we’re the only ones writing on the tables here. note to self: always carry crayons. 🙂

short walk up Wabash to stand out in the cold and catch Nik Wallenda’s tightrope walk. unfortunately had to grab a taxi to the airport before he started, but was a great atmosphere out on the street. if i would of bought a place in Marina City as originally planned, could of watched him make both crossings while standing a few feet away on my balcony…

early flight home from Boston, caught the end of the first snow. took Mira treat-or-treating in the building, then the 3 of us briefly dropped in for the party upstairs on the roof.

yearly MeetUp.com Halloween party. Лена bedazzled Mira’s elephant costume, and she looked great – took second place in the costume contest. spent some time in the playground after the party, which was also a lot of fun. walked down Chicago Ave. and found a great little Cuban restaurant for lunch. dinner at Лена’s favorite Mexican spot in River North.

late walk in the park with the girls. unseasonably warm, but expecting it to get a lot colder, very soon.

typical Sunday, watching Mira and some football early afternoon, walk with the girls early evening. ended up at Weber Grill for an early dinner

interviewed some new candidates for hire in the morning, afternoon working from home. lunch with the girls at Gage, never realized the place was so big.
