Eating celery at Baskin Robbins

I'm at a local ice cream parlor with Rachel. Since it is Sunday you can probably guess what I'm having, right?

Yep! You nailed it... I'm having celery, once again. A big, crisp stalk of celery. Oh man it is a tasty treat! It's weird because a lot of people didn't even know that they offer celery at Baskin-Robbins.

(By the way... pay no attention to the ice cream cone you see in the photo.)

There are some lessons that can only be learned from falling down

Someday it will all be put right

Nadia and Rachel are taking a trip

Nadia and Rachel are taking a quick trip for Florida for a few days to visit Nadia’s mom. Just before we left to drop them at the airport, however, a little snag was discovered that resulted in some uncertainty as to whether Rachel would be able to board the jet. So after I dropped them at the airport departure area I had to drive around and hang near the airport for about 25 minutes just in case she was not able to go on the trip.

Fortunately, the difficulty was resolved and everything is fine. Nadia and Rachel are on their way!

In the meantime, Taylor, Jasper, Lucy and I are admirably holding down the fort here in Oak Lawn! (Although, they’ve only been gone about 3 hours.)

McDonalds, Taco Bell, Burger King, Wendy’s and all local pizzerias have been notified and cautioned to expect a sharp increase in sales over the next few days.

(By the way, Nadia’s parents live in Port Charlotte. So, should I be concerned that the destination on their tickets is marked as “Daytona Beach” on the week that spring begins? …Hmm, just wondering.)

Don't get sucked into unnecessary arguments

Problems and difficulties are not pointless!

Crazy weather in Oak Lawn, IL - Strange tales from Dan

 The first photo was taken yesterday in the afternoon. The second photo was taken today at approximately the same time, in the afternoon.

..…And then…you’re not going to believe it, but the third photo was taken about 5 minutes ago, outside my window here in Oak Lawn. Crazy, huh? Okay, sure… the third picture is purely in my imagination. But still…

Hey! A person has to cultivate a bit of wishful thinking once in a while during Chicago winters, right?
