yay!!
soooo tired so i'm probably not sounding as excited as i was about 2 hours ago--- my mom's friend wrote me back and she's super thrilled to have me stay with her and she's all over being my tour guide for a few days in Chicago! yuuuhoooo!
so after feeling a little like it was going to be a bit of a lonely trip, it's just totally worked itself out. :)
She wants to go see Wicked the musical with me !!! and would love to take me shopping and see Frank Lloyd Wright's houses and the gigantic art gallery etc etc etc. FABULOUS. I can stop worrying about being alone in a big city. I mean- alone is not so bad- I've done Europe alone and had an amazing time, but it's just much more fun with two. I will be very well taken care of, in fact. :)
She lives in Glen Ellyn which she says is 25 minutes south of Barrington and that probably makes it like, 40 minutes from downtown. So I'll just get Annie's folks to drop me off there after dinner. -- if she doesn't have a cat that is. i won't be able to stay with her if she has a cat, due to deadly allergies, but i'll find out tomorrow if she does. cross your fingers for me.
Annie- I'll call ticket guys tomorrow. My visa has been charged and so *threatens* those dudes better get that ticket out to you protissimo!
((((wishing lots of love and light out to my momma right now))))) she's worried about a medical test she just had. i'm sure it's all good, but she has to wait a week for another conclusive result so that she knows it's nothing. so (((((♥ ♥ ♥ ♥))))) x's infinity x's forever.
