• rachel is well enough to go back to work. she really appreciated all of the love
• going to see batman tonight w/friends. give me a call if you want to join us, or if you want to see it another night also.
• comfort made it into the final 8 (mikey now owes me a dollar)
  
• the cubs are in first place. with a +106 run differential.

downs:

• gev was kicked off of so you think you can dance. i can't believe he beat out mark!
• the tour is starting to lose it's steam with me.
• encryption and security is a hard problem
