I'm really glad I wrote
this post because I feel like it gave me the motivation I needed to refuse to take no for an answer from the airlines. Long story short: I found a flight at 9:30 am and, while I got no sleep, I *did* get to Chicago.
And I also got to see
vulgarweed! We had dinner and walked around the old 'hood and just generally tried to catch up on the last 20 years or so. We tried to get
divinetailor to come out and join us but we were unable to track her down. Hopefully next time we'll get that planned out early.
Look for pictures on facebook. :)
