I had completely forgotten about this blog. I am very glad we are reinstating it!!!

So life for me really isn't too exciting. I am living in Bolingbrook which is one of the suburbs farthest from Chicago. I work for JCPenney in Woodridge, IL which is like eight miles from my apartment and I am still trying to find a group of friends to hang out with on a regular basis. Part of my problem is the people I know up here are scattered around the city and suburbia. And some of my coworkers really aren't the kind of people I would hang out with...not to sound like a snob but our interests are just completely different. They are great people though!

I think I really miss JBU and how close we were to each other. I miss getting to pester and glomp people that are spread across the country and world...

So every Thursday I am off. I sleep mostly, but today I was up watching Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations. He goes all over the world to sample the different cuisine of the country he is visiting. And he was in Korea today. I was like "Yay I can see some of the food Emma has been eating!" He also likes to taste some of the weird food of the country. They went all over Souel and out in the country. I really enjoyed it! Made me wanna jump a plane and visit Emma!

One of the reasons I wanted to move up here was because this city is one of my favorite places to go. I have relatives up here and so I stayed with them and their three crazy cats. Now I am living in their condo, they live in a house. I love going over there to visit and getting to mess around with the cats. Well two of them will tolerate me. The third hides most of the time. They have Domino, Kitty, and Marshmellow. Domino is the biggest of the three and loves to sleep all day. He might let you pet him but rarely will you get him in your lap. Kitty is very skidish and will spend most of the time you are there up on or behind my Aunt and Uncle's bed, unless he wants to go outside, then he will sit at the back door and meow mournfully till you let him out. Marshmellow is the female and the spaz of the group. She loves running around like a maniac in big empty boxes and her tent and has an unfortunate habit of flinging huge boogers up the wall when she sneezes. It is the funniest and most disgusting thing especially when you are within range of her projectile boogers. The poor dear has allergies that they haven't quite figured out.

Other than the crazy cats, its me and my homicidal clown fish living in the apartment. I hope to get a dog one day, but well that is more money than I have, yay for school loans! Anyway I am gonna stop for now.
