Our Fortress of Solitude Last Saturday at 9 a.m., Darling Angel moved out to her very own, very nice condo. She stayed with us for 5 months. Keep in mind Colliculus and I had only lived in this place alone for 3, so it's kinda weird. In fact I feel kind of like . . . snif . . . the nest is empty.

Also she bakes cookies whenever she needs to relax, which is at least every week or two, so now we're missing out on some o' that action.

Overall, though, it's damn good to have the house to ourselves.

Would-be Chicago travelers, book your trip ASAP! We've already got 3 weddings, the beach trip, a trip to Philly and 3 weekends of visitors booked for the season and it's only February! Savvy visitors will be sure to consider Chicago's oft-overlooked shoulder season happening RIGHT NOW.
