Hi ya'll just to let you know that you won't hear too much from me today or tomorrow. We leave for Chicago stink early tomorrow (9:00am - I just don't like mornings!). Yay, whoop-dee-doo, and hal-ee-frickin'-lujah! I will not die of second hand smoke inhalation now, nor will poor Bennett get more of an education than he bargained for, nor will my parents go totally nuts over safety (they haven't actually been as strict as I thought they were going to be)! But, we are outta here!
I learned something new today. You can, in fact, sunburn your lips, and it hurts like a bear with a sore head. Not good.
And, I'm really looking forward to Chicago. The story I'm working on at the present moment is set there, in the '60's music and FBI circles, and I need as much reaserch as physically possible. I've compiled a list of questions to bug any official person I meet with, and have set my sights for the museums and the Symphony and the FBI Headquarters and the art gallery. Very excited! Don't know if I will have time, or the ability to sweet-talk my parents for that, though... Ah well. Mum and Dad are both with me on the Symphony and Art Gallery, at least. And, the museums won't take that much wheedling. After all, can any parent resist a child so eager to learn and be a good student? (Bats eyelashes and looks innocent....)
I have to log off now, [hopefully] loyal readers. I need my beauty sleep if I'm supposed to be dragging my weary backside outta bed so early tomorrow. (No comments about me needing beauty sllep full stop! I can hear you!!!) Yeah well... "that's what you get for wakin' up in Vegas!"
Sorry. Couldn't resist. ;o)
Good night,
Rachel
P.S. The "wrong lyrics" is because the song is "California, here we come," actually. Remember, I think I mentioned singing it VERY SOFTLY on the plane to Cali.
