If you've been concerned about our neighborhood thief, put away your fears, the perpetrators have been caught! The story even made the cover page of the Local & State section of the Peoria Newspaper (see above). It was a much larger ring than we had suspected with 36+ break-ins and at least 6 people involved. You can read the article here: Peoria Journal Star. There is also a more detailed story in the East Peoria newspaper, you can read that here: East Peoria Times Courier. So, we're back to parking in the driveway, which is a good thing because we're picking up my dad's old motorcycle this weekend from my mom's house. It hasn't been ridden in probably 30 years, so it'll be a big pain the ass or a fun project or maybe a little of both.
Sig (my orange tabby cat) is having some medical problems. Either a rodent ulcer or cancer, and the vet wants to do a biopsy...this could be a long story, but I'll just say I haven't completely decided on a course of action.
I'm totally craving Ethiopian Diamond (the number 5 thing I miss about Chicago, I think it is). Below Sara is modeling the food, from the last time I ate there, 2-3 months ago. That's the longest it has ever been. :( Oh, Diamond, how I miss you so:
Frank and I are planning a reconnaissance trip to Dallas next week. I'm really excited to be going on a roadtrip! We found some really good deals on some really nice looking hotels with Priceline and Hotwire down in Dallas (like $42/night including fees and taxes!). Probably because it's hotter than the gates of hell down there right now, and who would want to go there, right? But, at least they have pools! :)
