Today I am in New Market, Maryland at my sister's house. We had Thanksgiving dinner here last night, and the guests included my parents and their spouses....which may not seem all that monumental, but for a kid with divorced parents it's pretty monumental indeed. This was the first Thanksgiving in 20 years where my sister and I could be in one place and have everyone come to US. It was nice!
I am starting to come to terms with the fact that I've been pretty blah over the last few months (that's code for "I'm kind of depressed but don't want my friends and family to be concerned so I won't say 'depressed'). I simply don't care anymore about what I'm doing and I need to do something else. The thing that makes me feel better about it is that I know this feeling is owed to job-related burnout, which means it's a very treatable situation. I want to go back to school, or start a business, or run for office, or, or, or...well, I'm not sure what I want to do but I feel very energized about finding it. Stay tuned for more exciting developments in this regard.

Today I am in Chicago and this blog is in desperate need of a new entry! My mom was here for my birthday weekend last week, which was very nice. We had a delicious dinner and then went to a quilt show ... what could be better?! I also got a new rug for the living room and think I have finally broken my bad rug luck.
Am leaving tomorrow for Thanksgiving with the family.
Wow, I really have nothing to say.

Today I am in Atlanta. Happy Anniversary, Dad and Rita! You are finally 21 years old and can drink legally.
I am in the Delta Crown Room awaiting my flight home. There is a guy across from me sitting in what Delta calls "The Quiet Zone." It's a grouping of several comfy chairs and in the middle there's a large sign that says "Quiet Area" and has a picture of a cell phone with a line through it. This guy is sitting back in his chair talking louder than I have ever heard someone talk on a cell phone before, the irony of which is totally lost on him because he has no idea the sign is there (even though he had to walk around it to get to his chair). Have I mentioned recently how much I love traveling for my job?
