My name is Dave. I have things to say. I know not where I am going, only where I have been. When I get there, I'll be sure to let you know. If we meet along the way, let's do something.

the morning after the night before...

Whilst not asleep, I lay in bed for a while. Like a long while. I even stayed laying there, motionless, whilst the cleaners prepared the other now empty beds in the dorm. I surfaced about 1pm, showered, and got myself ready to go out for a stroll and find some food. As I walked into downtown Chicago I thought I'd ring Tara and Dennis. Tara answered and said she'd be making her way into town later and would call me, Dennis didn't answer. I strolled around for a bit, ate, then went to Millennium Park. Tara called and we arranged to meet in the Park.

"So, when are you going back to Minneapolis"?
"Tomorrow morning, 6:30am".
"So, shall I still come to Minneapolis and couchsurf at yours?"
"Yeah, sure".
"So, shall I get the same bus as you?"
"Yeah, OK".
"So, that's cool with you?"
"That's cool with me".
"Cool".
"Cool".

A quick visit to megabus.com and that was that. Completely against my plans to head eastward, I'm now randomly heading west to Minneapolis. Sunday disappears, and before I know it, it's 6:30am and we're sat on a Megabus for our 8 hour journey to Minneapolis. Monday disappears, but Tuesday and Wednesday are to bring more fun to the table...
