Yesterday around 4:30 or so I developed a pain in my chest, right at the base of the sternum, accompanied by some indigestion. Strange, thought it would resolve. It was pretty much the same today, and I got spooked enough about it to hustle over to Charlotte Hungerford to get checked out before I got on a plane this evening. They did all the sorts of things I imagined they might do when a gentleman of a certain age shows up complaining of chest pain, vitals, EKG, blood work, x-Ray. All normal. So no real indication of what this is, but I seem to be fine, so home again and shortly after off to the airport.

Feeling very civilized, riding the blue line in from OHare to downtown. Clean, convenient, $5. Will drop me a block or two from my hotel. Nice.
