Day 1: I Heart You, Mitten

Hallo All- 

And we are off!

First stop is Chicago to see my best friends, Z and Michael. I mean Marmot has to see his uncles before we trek to the other end of the states, eh? Poor buddy has to stay in his little domed carrier for the car rides and then stay in their closet because we are not sure how well he and Creature will get along again. I am anticipating some hilarious scenarios of:

Marmot: “Play with meeeeeeee. Play with meeeeeee!”
Creature: MEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW /swat
Hahahaha…I shouldn’t laugh…but I do and will.

Leaving Lansing in the evening is the target time. This will hopefully help me get used to driving with such a heavy carload without having so much traffic to frighten lil’ ol Asian dude.

*** (time passes)

Um…there was so much construction! What the heck?! Majority of the toll road was down one lane and no one was driving the labeled 45 MPH. Everyone is whizzing by me super fast. I sincerely dislike driving in and into Chicago; and you know the police will pull ME over because I have a Michigan plate.

Finally got to Chicago and Michael, bless his heart, came outside to help me find a parking spot on their busy road with such limited spaces. We will NOT mention that a certain Asian almost swiped a van attempting to rush into a spot. >.> Meh…nothing like a nice bottle of carménère won’t fix. 

Shorter post today because I am so tired. Lucky you. 

Much love, 
Rog
