What Chicago is talking about this week ...
Take your pick ... some are talking about how it is Christmas Eve (hey Serbs! hey Ukrainians! hey other Orthodox folks!) ... in the spirit of equal time, others are talking about the Epiphany and the Magi's visit (or maybe that's the same people celebrating the same thing ... what do I know) ... and those who celebrate at the altar of the puck, are happy to hear that hockey will return in 2013 after all.
Me -- I'm talking about being stuck between my plans for a mostly prepaid vacation that was to have started on Wednesday which has strict cancellation policies requiring a fourteen day cancellation notice and the fact that my father will be interred sometime this week (once a paperwork snafu is resolved) but I may not be able to make it back to PA to be there.
One day at a time folks -- including tomorrow, when Facebook says I have a birthday (not that all of Chicago is talking about that fact, mind you ... just the people important to me!)
MERRY (ORTHODOX) CHRISTMAS EVE!:
