I'm in Chicago now, dialed in via my cell phone, to check e-mail and post this. Our plane is boarding, but I always wait until the end to get on, I don't see any reason to disconnect my laptop from power early! Also, one of the women in line is apparently saying goodbye to her dog over her cell phone. People are strange. Oh, and am I the only human who doesn't have to concentrate to calculate time zone differences in my head? It seems that way, I'm always traveling with someone who doesn't understand how they work, or something...

After an extremely hectic week, I'm on the road. First stop, Minneapolis! I made it up here last night, in time to have tasy burgers at J Dylan's mom's house for his birthday yesterday, then we caught Seth Mulvihill's band playing at the Uptown Bar, then we came home, I stole his cable modem connection to use on my laptop, and then crashed on his futon. My flight to Vegas doesn't leave until 7:47 tonight (on ATA, which I've never flown). So, we've got some time to run around today. I've heard that they have Pepsi in glass bottles up here, and I'm going to stock up on them, so I can haul them back to Iowa with me when I return.

I also saw a Jimmy John's last night, near the bar, which means I can't leave Minneapolis until I eat there.
