Finally back in Chicago. Uneventful flight, I slept for an hour or so of it. We got in a little early, but had to rent a car because G's is still in the shop. Then it was off to pick up Boris from our wonderful pet-sitters'. They have a big, beautiful house on the west side. A zillion dogs were running around (well, only 5 or 6). Boris was happy as hell to see us and after romping with other dogs for 4 days he will probably spend the next 2 sleeping.

Tonight, its a pizza, a movie, and a good night's sleep. Tomorrow is running around, picking up my car, going to doctor's appointments, etc. Then it's back to work Tuesday . . . the end is near.
