So. Chicago. It was kind of a bitch getting there. We were flying standby because Kelly’s mom works for United, so the tickets were super cheap, but getting on a flight was kind of a crapshoot. We showed up at the airport at 5AM, and didn’t manage to get on the first three flights that left.

The next one that was a direct flight wasn’t until 10:30 PM, so we ended up getting a ride back to my place, napping for a few hours, and then heading back out to the airport. But we managed to both get first class for the redeye flight and got into Chicago at 4:30AM. After making our way to her brother’s place, we passed out around 6AM and proceeded to sleep for about half the day…
