return, regroup, revise

After about 1,000 clutch-induced left calf crunches in the snarly 94 traffic, a happy, dancy, home-to-the-whippets celebration, a trek back through email to pick up the scheduling requests and pleas for help that came through while we were gone, a long phone convo with E for a vacay rehash and general chit chat, and a lovely backyard dinner featuring fish and salad we picked up at Whole Foods before leaving Chicago, it's time to get back to the textbook revision.
