I miss my old internet connection

This one is draggingly slow. I guess I was spoiled. It takes ages to load a page and forget about images. ARGH. Now I'm getting, "Some gmail features failed to load due to an internet connectivity problem." I need to see my email, please. It's been 4 days.

Hmm, I wonder if it's the wireless router? I don't have my desktop hooked up right now and am relying on my desktop, but this router is older.

So for those who know the chicagoland area, for the moment, I am living about 7 miles from the University of Chicago. I have grand plans on prancing around the The Oriental Institute in my floppy Daniel hat and taking pictures.

It's a beautiful campus over there. It's too bad they didn't have any major I was interested in and they weren't so close to home. I have attended colleges that cost nearly as much, but were not as pretty.

I think I am an oddball anyway, because I LOVE visiting college campuses. I love to see if they've integrated their biology, horticulture, or even botany programs into the landscaping. And I love seeing the traditions and buildings and feeling the atmosphere and just how they use their space in general. Some have little museums as part of their campuses too. I don't have the time now, but I can fully see myself adding a day of vacation time to visit a campus in an area I'm visiting when I'm older.

I like roadside museums too. Love the ridiculousness of it all!

Now I wonder if this will post or if will have to save to draft again due to slow internet?
