White Christmas

[morrigirl]

Guess who is gonna be in Galesburg the last week of December?

That's right, yours truly. I've yet to make the train reservations, still deciding if I wanna shell out the $880.00 dollars for a sleeping car to and from, or if I can be content with the $200.00 round trip coach fare. One way or the other silent_t has already taken that week off from work so if I don't show up she's out a weeks pay, and the last thing I want to do is cause her more financial stress. I've no choice but to show up :-D

I'll probably be at Knox from Dec. 27 - Jan 1 when absolutely no one is on campus. It's a shame. I'd love to see some of my seniorly Knoxian friends, it would be a huge plus, but this trip is about Tina. I haven't seen her in almost a year and a half. That's the longest we've been apart since we met six years ago. Isn't that crazy? I spent day and night with this woman throughout college, and I miss her terribly. This trip is all about spending time with my sweet Tina Rina who I love more than my luggage!!!

I'm also gonna try to see some Chicago folk during my two layovers in the windy city. kdc4evr has agreed to have lunch with me when I pass through on the 1st. Gonna see if I can get a hold of Libby, try to con her into having lunch with me on the 28th. Haven't seen that lovely lady in a couple years either. If I'm successful I will have packed quality time with three of my best friends into a 5 day period. Go me!

If anyone else wants in on the action, if you're gonna be on campus early, or you're gonna be hanging around Union Station that week, lemme know. We'll make an appointment to share some love :-D

Aw, that sucks! I would have really liked to give you a hug and catch up over Gizmo cheese sticks. (Of course Gizmo won't even be open but *sigh* a girl can dream can't she?)
