Tracy might be a featured extra on Divergent filming in Chicago. If so, would be pretty cool. Screws up work scheduling, and who knows what it'll mean for pickup/dropoff timing, but she might actually be visible in a movie. That'd be cool. Just one of those things to do, if she gets picked. At least I think so. And her coworkers too. Started reading Jennifer Government. And saw that some MillarWorld comics are finally available through Comixology. So got Nemesis (comics), Kick-Ass 2 and Hit-Girl. So that's cool. Had to pick up Lucy early last week because of some giant snowstorm where they closed the school early. So Lucy and I got to play in the snow, which was pretty much gone by the next day. And today they're closing it early again, but this time Tracy's gonna go pick her up. Was going to go to the Donut Vault, since I had to get off at Merchandise Mart with the Wells Street Bridge construction, but didn't realize it was cash only. Maybe tomorrow. Otherwise, it's March. Try to get my bike commuting when I can, but this late winter/early spring snowfalls are making it difficult. My left knee's been feeling a little funky walking/stair climbing. Feels great on the bike. Got a whole list of computer/hard drive upgrades to try and rationalize purchasing. Also tried out Outlook 2013 and SQL Server Management Studio 2012. Both of which look kind of awful on Windows 7, which made me think about getting Windows 8, but to tide me over I just reverted back to a Parallels VM with Outlook 2010 and SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2. Really wish I could get, or make my own copy, of Management Studio for Mac OS X. Maybe someday.
