jolly good.

i find myself yet again writing from another airport. chicago o'hare this time. i caved and paid the stupid fee so that i could have wireless. 4 hours in an airport makes one do crazy things...such as pay for the internet. anyway, in exactly one hour and 23 minutes i'm moving to england! well, boarding a plane that will inevitebly lead to my move to england 8 hours later. :) and you know what that means??? I GET TO UNPACK MY SUITCASE!!!! i haven't done that for 2 months!

ali has been here the past couple of weeks, a week in chicago and 4 days in iowa, in a fantastic and at times comical trip i'd call "britain meets the midwest." if that were a book, i think the picture on the front would have to be ali, in his skinny jeans, blue rocknroll belt, and swooshy punk hair climbing into a massive green john deere combine harvester with my dad in complete farming gear. but i think he liked the midwest and i know the midwest liked him so HOORAY for two cultures getting along. and now i'm entering another book called "midwest girl meets england." :)

so i had a mcdonalds icecream cone tonight and OH MAN when did they get so good? seriously, why haven't i been eating those every single day? mmmmm. made the 4 hours in the airport more bearable.

next post will be from england! maybe i'll write with an accent. he he.
