Northside, represent. Go Cubs! Da Bears! Jordan! Corrupt politicians! 9.5% sales tax! Strong winds/more corrupt politicians! FEAST ON ITS GLORY!
Also, light pollution. LOOK A STAR! Wait, no, airplane.
I lived there for the first 30 years of my life. I still consider it home even if only 3 of my friends and family still live there.
Why did I leave? Most of my friends and family weren't even living there anymore. Also, it's expensive. Also, Adam doesn't live there. He lives in small-town Michigan, which is where I live now. And let me tell you.... I'm still trying to adjust, even after a year and a half.

ReplyDeleteWow, Chicago! Hope I could visit. Lucky you you lived there for 30 years! Cool.
ReplyDeleteOh, by the way, I'm a new follower, Dara!
Good luck adjusting. Moving can be very hard on a person, I've seen people take many years to get over it.
ReplyDeleteLiving in the UK, as I do, it's sometimes hard to get the hang of the idea that somewhere in the same country can be so very different.
ReplyDeleteI am an Air Force Brat. Home is wherever I sleep :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes I wish I could call someplace my home. But I'm so thankful for the opportunity to travel the world and experience different cultures. :)
You'll get used it it. Promise. :)

I can so relate to this post. Hopefully you'll get adjusted soon
ReplyDeleteI've been to the Chicago airport. :) The city looks beautiful in that picture.
ReplyDeleteSo, fess up. Is the pizza really as good as they say? :)
ReplyDeleteI've never lived in Chicago but always love visiting there. There's really no place else like it. You made me laugh about the corrupt politicians LOL.
