Sigh. There's something very depressing about Naperville. Maybe it's the stock phrases that the waitresses (always women) reel out to every customer in a mockery of friendliness
"Hi, my name's Wendy, I'll be your server today. The specials are ..."
"Sure, would you like a side with that?"

Maybe it's the fact that every shop is like one of those horrible trading estates. Somehow it feels like living in Alton Towers. But with motorways everywhere so you can't walk anywhere. I've eaten out every night and still haven't found a proper restaurant - just a collection of different tacky mass-produced theme diners.

I'm sure it's the same in England but I'm used to it there. And I don't end up working such stupid hours (70-80+ hour week this week!)

Hmm. Don't like travelling.
