In all seriousness, our really good friends from graduate school (Aaron and Karen) live in Zurich and I found tickets that were pretty reasonably priced during the week that Karen has off from work SO I bought them. It's totally nice to not have kids sometimes as we can just decide to go do that. We are going in February so the weather might not be the best (probably why the flights were so cheap) but hell, February in Chicago leaves little to be desired as well. Since we are there for a nice stretch of time we might try and go travel to Italy or something as well.
So that's exciting news.
In less than exciting news.....I didn't get up to run this morning. I don't know why I continue to think that I'll be able to get up early to run. I NEVER do. So we are going to have to go tonight and DVR the Cubs game and watch it make in non-real time. I'm so excited about the Cubs, but we have been here before. They have made it to round one and broke our hearts. And so, they gotta get through this first series then we can really start to get excited. Plus my Dad is flying in in a few weeks, so that's also very exciting.
Alright. I have to stop smiling and not go looking at every website that has the words "Zurich" on them. Yay. I should thank ahead of time, Aaron and Karen for letting us crash with them for a week. Ok. Time for meetings

That's SO awesome! I went to the UK in February a few years ago since it was less expensive to fly there than to fly domestically. The weather wasn't great, but we did have sun one day! My British co-workers teased me about going in the winter because the weather was going to be bad, but I still had fun visiting my friends and that was all that mattered to me really!
Have a blast!
Um, yeah, it's cold already here, but the bars are warm! We could also take a jaunt over to Italy or another nearby country--'CAUSE WE'RE IN SWITZERLAND!!!
