I spent most of Friday in Dayton. I returned to West Lafayette about 18:00. After a quick two hour nap I headed back into the office and did some more hacking. I got home about 23:30 and found my place infested with humans playing starcraft. I hung out with them for a bit before retiring for the evening.

On Saturday Sara and I packed up and headed to Chicago. It started snowing as we were leaving which was rather odd for late April. We arrived at Sara's ancestral home with about an hour to spare. We cleaned up and drove to Jaina's place. There her family allowed us to join their seder. Neither Sara nor I had ever attended a seder, so it was a novel experience. As it turns out horse radish is a bitter herb.

After dinner we went out to a bar where I met several more of Sara's friends including Betsy and Kira. After awakening on Sunday we headed out to Walker Brothers for pancakes. The food there was truly delicious. I had a giant apple-cinnamon pancake. I had to poke it to let the air bubbles out. It was quite tasty.

After pancakes we headed to Wrigleyville for a Cubs game. It was cold, but shortly after we arrived the sun came up and made it bearable. This was not only my first Cubs game, but also my first major league baseball game. Strangely enough the Cubs won. What are the odds?

It has taken me almost a a week to get the weekend update in here. We will hope that next week will have more updates. With things at work going like Gang Busters that may not occur. Also, photos of the trip to Chicago are available.
