I am pretty much out of my old apartment. It was pretty sad to leave the cats. But I guess thats the way it goes. There are cats at jonathans place that come and go, mainly just 2 and they are brother/sister. But that is also why I couldnt bring gaia, shes not an indoor/outdoor cat.


I am in Chicago until Tomorrow night. Got here just fine, early even. But I almost missed my plane. Yesterday Mike and I wakled around a N Milwaukee avenue for a few hours and had some lunch at a coffee shop called Filter (grilled cheese and chips). Then we had dinner at a coffee shop called Earwax (pancakes with chocolate chips). We also managed to play a few rounds of New Super Mario Bros on the DS.

The snow felt like giant tufts of white cat hair falling on me, but then melting and making my feet very cold after a while. I bought a scarf. I couldnt find cheap shoes.


Today we are going to the condo that is being built. I'm very interested to see the size inside, and outside. I dont really know what the neighorhood looks like either, so I want to see that. I just want to see it.

Really tired last night too. Mike is a fast walker and in very good shape from boxing and martial arts. I am not in shape right now, so I keep up but I'm tired. Plus I have what feels like tendonitus behind my right knee, so lots of walking, fast, without stretching takes its toll and I want to sit down after a while. We got back to his friends house, Steve, around 8 or 9 I think, and I pretty much went to bed. But I think that means it was only 6 or 7 my time, which is pretty early (however I did wake up pretty early - 4.30am). Being so tired, I was a little homesick last night before falling asleep, and questioning if I can handle this, and if I will really like being here. But now that I've slept well I feel more sure of myself again. Its a big change, and a big deal to move like this. I should make sure to save lots of money once I move incase I want to move back. Hopefully that wont happen, and even still I will probably make a lot of money because I am awesome.
