There are some feelings I'd like to experience again that I haven't felt in a long time.
Such as -
Stepping out of an airplane into cold air.
Waiting for luggage by myself in a city I've never been before late at night.
Waking up on a winter morning with cloudy skies and windy air.
Strolling down random streets in Chicago.
So, I'm going to Chicago November 10th - 13th.
Just for myself. A short trip.
And it's funny how much of Chicago I remember. What songs on my iPod remind me of what I was doing.
For right now, at least - I'm not going to have that Holiday time with my family because it hasn't happened in years. I get sad about it sometimes and I just roll my eyes at my friends who hate going home to their family during this time because I'd like to have a normal family to come home to even if they annoy the shit out of me. But it's the way it is.
Oh and extremely happy note,
My BP (oil spill) claim for lost wages got approved.
And yes it was a very nice amount. I'll be doing some traveling on my own this winter.
Planning trips:
Chicago
San Francisco
Los Angeles
New York
Paris
