A Christmas Carol

we took a day off yesterday (well, i did, ben worked from home at least the same amount of time that he would have had we gone to work).
the occasion -- we had tickets to the Goodman Theatre production, "A Christmas Carol".
it was fabulous!

Scrooge was just the right amount of "humbug" turning into giddy, and the other actors, to the last of them, were also excellent.
there certainly is something special about the theater, we should definitely do it more!

Yeah, Scrooge's uncle and Bob Cratchit both almost had me in tears a couple of times. Anybody that is in Chicago during December MUST go see this. It was a great time :).

Plus, playing hooky from work and taking the train downtown helped us avoid the traffic gridlock from the snowstorm we had that day. It took people from work over hours to drive home because of the snow!

Enjoy the Christmas spirit.

We're doing the hannuka thing.
