Reverting to Childhood

My friend Katy and I decided that we wanted to go to the City Museum in St. Louis on Saturday. So we went. It was one of those "oh God I hate it here, Run away!" kind of days. Well, we got there at 3 in the afternoon, left the museum at like 10 at night, and went to visit a friend in the St. Louis Loop. We left St. Louis at a little after midnight and managed to make it back to Decatur by 3 am. Brilliant! It was a wonderful little escape for us. I spent today working quite apathetically on one of my projects to try to make up for goofing around in Missouri for most of the weekend.
Here are a few attempts made by Katy, to get a photo of the Gateway Arch at night, while I was driving back into the city after mistakenly going the wrong way...("I don't think we're going the right way..." "Why Not?" "Because we're in Illinois again....")

Brilliance! I can't wait to do it again! It was just what I needed after the giant mess last week was.

Yay! You got some shore leave! Sounds like you needed it, I'm glad you carved out a mini-vacation for yourself.
