Our house is under a foot of snow and it’s still coming down. If you or so you love is currently trapped in similar conditions, may I suggest watching Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein on Netflix? It’s an instant classic, tens across the board.

Alex and I played tourist yesterday and did something neither of us have ever done - we went to the Sears Tower. It is quite a touristy destination, you will be shocked to learn. Alex said a lot of it felt like being in an airport.
