Indy to Chicago

View Larger Map
I am in Chicago. 15 days after I left here, I am back on my friend Noah’s couch. I came up tonight in hopes of seeing Noah in Strawdog Theatre Company’s production of RUR.

Unfortunately, tonight was not one of their Thursday performances, but I did get to watch the cast run through three-quarters of the show. The story is about the handful of scientists who run a company that manufactures lifelike robots. One of the scientists starts making the robots smarter, they start a revolt and kill their human masters. At least, that’s what happens through the second act. I didn’t get to see the ending.

The cast ran the show in their street clothes, and they were obviously having a lot of fun with the run tonight, but it still looks like a great show. Sorry I am leaving tomorrow and won’t get to see the end.

I got my Indiana tags yesterday, but I didn’t want to write anything about it out of fear that I would jinx myself into staying in Indianapolis even longer. I’m basically about four days behind where I had hoped to be. Franca and I have been trying to work out when she would come visit me, but it has been difficult to do so without knowing where I’d be. Now that I am finally on the way, we can square away her travel plans.

I still have some notes from the last couple of weeks, which I will get posted soon. I’ve learned that it is extremely tricky to get things online from my notebook.
