Have you ever wondered what pool reporters do? Lynn Sweet tells us in her posts. It can be pretty boring, kind of like my junior high diary.

Dear Diary, today I woke up, got dressed, walked to the bus stop, saw Kathy, giggled, ate lunch, came home, had a snack, did homework, watched TV...

Motorcade encountered very light snowfall, the beginning of what's expected to be Chicago's first major winter storm of the season. Press pool camped out in nearby coffee shop. No word on the rest of Obama's Sunday schedule, but it's expected that he'll be watching this evening's nationally televised Bears-Vikings game.
