I'm home as is Cappy and sweetestdrain.  I was not quite able to outrun the con crud. Now, I nap until time to go get Sid and the cat.

Dude, I left Chicago this morning at 3:30am and I STILL made it home faster than you. What is up with that?

Also, didn't you just LOVE how they hid 65 coming off 90? I felt that was the most special part of the trip of all.

OMG and I was singing its praises because it was STILL a better marked detour than when going north! I stopped in Indianapolis when the very existence of a 465E and a 465S within 5 miles of each other made me want to cry. It was partially my fault, my blood sugar crashed hard b/c I hadn't paid close enough attention after the muffin and frappachino which I didn't even GET till like 3:30.

Also you had a second driver, NEENER.

Yes, I did have a second driver but I also understand that anytime I avail myself of the second driver, my life expectancy becomes tremendously shortened (plus, god the way Cappy drives? I get carsick). She drove this morning from 7:30 until 9 (I had to drive from Chicago to below Indy as that shit is complicated, yo).

Yeah -- I avoid 465 like the plague. You do have to be on it briefly to stay on 65, and if I am gonna fuck up and get on the wrong road, past experience has proven that it will be in Indianapolis. This year, I flew through both ways, so next year I am expecting the apocolypse.

it was STILL a better marked detour than when going north!

No SHIT! Not only did I not get the 90 detour going North (I swear there was one sign and I didn't see it until I had past it) I ended up just staying on 80-94 into chicago, which was fine (traffic was low at that time of day and and I saved like 4 bucks in toll charges, so yay!)
