Chicago

I am headed to Libertyville, Illinois this weekend to see my best friend from college. I am looking forward to our time together and I am hoping that we get a chance to really catch up. Her family will be gone for part of the time that we are together allowing us a chance to be uninterupted.

I have been struggling recently after being unemployed now since the end of February 2009. I know that she also has been struggling with some things. I long for deeper conversation with her about the more important things of life and living, but I feel caught up in my own afflictions. I long to get past me and to really hear her heart.

I will be taking the Southshore train from South Bend, Indiana to downtown Chicago, then a bus to Union Station. From there I will be taking the Metra to Libertyville. Quite the adventure! I feel a bit nervous getting around town on my own but my friend told me exactly what bus and train to catch so I should be okay.
