but in reality, it needed one more change. It would have cost $275 for Crash to change his flights. So, I changed mine again, and leave for Chicago tomorrow morning. If the gods of O'Hare like us though, we'll land within 10 minutes of each other, in the same terminal. As O'Hare is known for its delays though... we'll see what happens. The last time I flew out, I sat on the runway for 90 minutes before I was able to take off. I'm hoping that doesn't happen again.
I've been enjoying the chance to have a few days off and catch up on sleep. I tried to knit over the last few days, but yesterday was that day you have where you can't do anything right to save your life. I got about halfway into two different blocks for the baby blanket, and had to rip both out. I tried to tink back and fix the mistakes, but that just yielded more mistakes. I don't know why I had so much trouble counting, but alas. I am really wishing I had a swift and ball winder today, as I'd like to cast on for the xmas present scarf for Crash. I may have to just suck it up and wind the balls up myself, as its doubtful when I can make it back to NYC and use Alyssa's.
I ended my knit with a nice long trip to Borders, where hardly anything inspired me at all, but I still managed to drop $50 on books. And then silly me decided to get an ice cream on a Friday night in New England. Now if you aren't familiar with New England, everyone gets ice cream. We eat more of it here than anywhere else in the country. I had to stand in line for 20 minutes at ColdStone. It was good though. And then I watched The Bucket List. Which is a great movie. Fantastic actors, great story line. I know i have my ever growing list... SCUBA dive, sky dive, own a home, marry, have kids, see Europe (Rome, Madrid/Barcelona, Athens, the Louvre) and Asia (Tokyo again, China) and Australia/New Zealand, learn to sail a sail boat, horseback ride along the beach. What's on your list? i know mine is constantly growing and changing and being added too.
Today is packing and I think treating myself to a pedicure. I'd like to hit waterfire tonight with my camera, but I'm not sure the weather will cooperate.

I miss you...that's it! Come to NYC soon!
I'd like to go to Australia too. I almost went there for study abroad in college. I'm not into having a list like in the movie though.
