I used to do five-day trips, and even longer ones, like they were nothing. Easy peasy. Not so much anymore. I am more than ready to get home and I'll be on a plane in a few hours, doing exactly that.
This has been a good trip but a long one. And I've learned something...five years of winters, winters that have gotten progressively worse with each year, in Chicago has made me really uncomfortable in warmer weather. As I was driving around Phoenix yesterday, the outside temperature was 72 or 73 degrees. I had the A/C in the car blasting and I was sweating. I was not wearing Chicago winter clothers. I was dressed for the temperature but it was liking to kill me. I thought it was hot. What is wrong with me? Or better yet, what has living in Chicago done to me?
It has turned you into a Chicagoan. And I am so sorry. Next you'll find yourself wanting to vote multiple times in the School Board elections.
