The Week in Summary

I spent the last week in (guess where?) Chicago, and for the first time since July I didn't play a show while I was there. It's funny, I didn't realize that it was such a routine until all these people from swing dancing in Chicago and friends that I talked to on the phone from Michigan were asking if I was in the city because of music. It's also noticeably easier to get around train stations and such without lugging instruments around.

It was good week, full of salsa dancing, less swing dancing than intended (I missed the workshop I wanted to take because the promo I was working didn't finish in time), visiting friends (including Emily, who made the trip from North Carolina), ice skating in Millennium Park, many hours on the public transportation system reading books, interviews, and some work.

Fantastic as it was, I didn't sleep much and ended up napping literally the entire train ride home. Without instruments to carry, I decided to walk home (it's 1.2 miles, which isn't too bad, and yesterday's weather felt like spring) and halfway back I heard a voice call my name: it was Scott R., on his way to watch videos made at a dance event in Ashville. So I ended up with a ride.
