Chicago has become such a drag. Every week. I am tired of it. I am tired of managing people, I am tired of doing other people’s work. I need a break.

The thought of packing distresses me. I just hope I have some clean socks.

Last night, Audra, Lanke, Lisa, Daddy, Mommy, and I went to a Chinese Restaurant in celebration of my Mom’s upcoming birthday. Afterward we had ice cream cake back home. It was also the anniversary of my grandmother’s 102nd birthday.
