Lucky, this point in time and space

- successfully cooked chicken lo mein

- finished grad school application #6. Just 10 more to go!

- got a job interview...for 8:30 on Friday morning downtown, which means leaving at 7:30 in the freezing cold while wearing tights and heels...but still.

- restrained myself for the 30th time from pre-ordering the the Practical Wedding book (gotta wait until tomorrow for the Great APW Book Buy...)

- watched it snow for the first time this winter in Chicago. I wonder if it will snow more, less, or equally as much as it did in northern Michigan?

- played some horn, which was absolutely dreadful (at one point I actually muttered, "Damn it, I used to be so good at this), but not quite as dreadful as I thought it might be. So begins the long uphill climb back to competence.

- Got a lovely Christmas card from Mari.

All in all, I would call it productive!
