Today has been the longest day. I got up at 4am and my train to the airport left at 5.30am. I got through security no problem and waited to board my plane which left at 10.35. I was so tired and willing to sleep on the plane because I knew I'd have to be awake the rest of the day, but I couldn't get comfortable and there were annoying loud people around me so I could only doze.
Coming into the airport though, flying down over the lake was incredible. I wish I could have got some photos of it. Immigration was, for once, not a problem, but that could have been because when he asked what I was doing here I said "I meet Fall Out Boy tomorrow!" I think he thought I was crazy.
ditchwitchbitch was there to pick me up and I felt strangely awake as we set off towards the city, but it was two hours of traffic and the gps sending us the wrong way before we actually got to the hotel and by that time I was in desperate need of a shower and some painkillers.
We went to the Clan store (not what I was expecting - it's so small!) and a few other shops before having dinner at 44th Ward Dinner Party which served lovely food, had a great atmosphere, and we were served by a really sweet guy named Cor(e)y.
We caught the El back to they city and now I am finally going to sleep.
FALL OUT BOY TOMORROW!!!
