in transit!
…Currently in transit to Chicago!
What up, four hour layover in NYC?
Oh. Don’t feel too bad for me, kiddies. I’ve got Season 5 of “Gilmore Girls”, “Elf”, and “Roman Holiday” to tide me over 
Cannot wait to be in Chicago already. I have so much to write and talk about, that I feel like a drunken Russian man who has had far too much vodka. At 12:32 in the afternoon.
I know. Classy. 
I have no idea what I’m going to do once I make landfall in Chicago, but I’m thinking a few of the following are definite must-dos:
1. Not get mugged. (I’m wearing a shirt that says “Hairy Otter” and a picture of an otter Harry Potter on it. I think that will help my case a little bit.
2. Possibly sneak into the Harper Library at UChicago
3. Get acclimated in the hostel I’m staying in for the next few days. Hopefully make friends with a bunch of swedes, as that seems like what you normally do in a hostel.
4.Cause a raucous i.e. gallivant around Lincoln Park, Millenium Park, Grant Park, and/or see Second City (and have my Mary Tyler Moore “You’re gonna make it after all” moment of glory.
5. Scrap all ideas for #4 and just sleep. And try and get a job. ‘Cause I totally got scarred today in JFK by having to buy a $10 sandwich as that was the most reasonable thing.
Le sigh. What a hard life I lead.
I’ll see you when I see you!
P.S. New Blog (‘cause, come on. This one is getting wayyyyy to ironic for its own good.) =
