I had a convo with a friend from work, happily divorced father of a 6 month old. He described accurately what it is like to be in "rehab." No, not Amy Winehouse, messy bouffant, smeared runny eyeliner, drunkenly balancing an infant, kind of rehab. He described it as recovering from a life-threatening disease in which only a transplant surgery will save your life. Rehabilitation to relearn what it is like to use this newly replaced limb. It takes patience and sacrifice and hope. You can't just go out and school some foo's on the b-ball court, you have to take it easy, you must believe and nourish and heal and rest, all the while pushing to get better and stronger.
My rehab tonight consisted of art, a beautiful skyline, incredible husband and a perfect sunset:
Tuesdays on the Terrace at the Museum of Contemporary Art
The museum was inspirational
Chicago grown artist, Jeff Koons returns with a limited time exhibit. It was awe-inspiring!
Let the healing begin.

I agree with Sarah Marie. It does look like a very wonderful night. It seems that every day you have something new to do in Chicago.
