Well, after two and a smidge days on the road, I'm in Durham. Highlights of the trip:
  • Ajax and Pandora were almost supernaturally awesome. There was occasional meowing late at night, but beyond that, they napped and looked out the window and were generally the most pleasant of traveling companions.
  • My opinion of Illinois has not changed. Also, Indiana smelled largely like cow manure.
  • After trying to resolve what turned out to be a relatively minor issue with my bank yesterday for two hours over the phone, I will be VERY pleased to give WaMu the boot and get back to banking with Wachovia.
  • My apartment is entirely acceptable, especially since it's half as much as my apartment in Denver, and feels about twice as large. The walk to the law school is entirely doable.

You went through IL and didn't call or contact me?

Yeah, but I was trying to get out of the state as quickly as I could. :)

WaMu screwed me out of about $7.5k. Fuck 'em

Yes! I thought I felt a strengthening of the force. NC just got a little hipper.

Durham? Is there a Durham in America?

There are several, actually. But this one happens to be in North Carolina.

Man, all the lousy states in this country and you pick on Illinois? Some of it is really pretty! In...an extremely boring way.

I was in the southern part of the state, which doesn't do much for me. I remember the north of the state as being better, but when I drove through there, I then followed it by driving the rest of the state lengthwise. It may not be as long as Kansas, but it's a helluva big state.

Oh man the southern part of the state (by which I mean "everything south of Chicago") is kind of a hole. You're right.

Yeah--my Illinois experience over the last three years has consisted of driving I-64 through the state both ways.
