Love's Labors Lost in Blogform

So today I woke up. You might not believe that if you know the crazy whacked-out stuff I get myself into, but I did wake up today. So after waking up a slowly got ready. Unfortunately I didn't have time for that so after not doing anything for some time I forgot to change my clothes. I did get to have some good St. Louis Gooey Coffee Cake. It filled me up quite well.

After that we went to the Gateway Arch. It was a cool monument to Thomas Jefferson, much better than the one in DC with all it's lies and slander and Roman architecture. This monument was made of true 1960s genius, or at least that what I think I remember. Anyway you could see all sorts of great things from there. Out to the west you could see Busch Stadium and the old courthouse where the Dread Scott case was. In fact you could see many of the cool building in St. Louis. Off to the east, there were some sights too, like the Mississippi River and.............um........like a granary I think.......I'm sure there was much more interesting things to see in East St. Louis, I probably just couldn't find them for some strange reason....... Anyway...after we bought cool stuff at the gift shop, like pencils, we left the building Elvis-style and took a short tour of the section of St Louis still paved with cobble stones. After that I changed and we left.

And like magic, that magic being crossing a bridge, we were in Illinois, land of looking at my laptop while I wrote the blog I post earlier about yesterday's exploits, but I think there was quite a bit of corn. Also there were a couple stops we made along the way. The first was one of the first gas stations built along Route 66. It was pretty neat to see. We got a replica of it before we left St. Louis from my aunt. We also so the Gemini Giant which I assume has some significance other than being there and being big.

At some point in there we got so hungry, we could eat at Arby's, so we did. Now I don't wanna go into a whole “Tom! Don't Eat That!” about it, so I'll skip to the bottom line. Bottom line readers, if you live out here in the Midwest and feel like some roast beef, you should go to Hardee's and get yourself a French Dip Thickburger and curly fries for not much more than Arby's. I think there is no comparison between the two and if you do you're wrong.

Once we got near Chicago we ended up having to get on a toll road. Now this toll road was nowhere near as bad as the awfulness that we found in America's little slice of the third-world, better known as Oklahoma. First off, the roads in Illinois are much better than the barely better than dirt road status most of the roads in Oklahoma have. Secondly, we didn't get charged as much for tolls in Illinois. One day I'm sure Oklahoma will learn, but probably my then we won't need roads anymore.

We finally arrived at our destination, Elk Grove Village, IL, which is a suburb of Chicago, IL. It nice though the speed limits are LOW here. I've never seen so many main street which such low speed limit. Also there are no actual lanes in the main streets, but there are implied lanes that people seem to follow, which I do like. After we moved my cousin's stuff in the apartment, we had his friend over, ate pizza, and watched South Park. While all of that was going on I wrote this, hopefully this will turn out better than that screenplay Bart wrote that one summer when he broke his leg, but only time and the opinion of judger will tell. Of course if they think it's anything other than the best they're just plan wrong.

Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Flanders. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma. Screw Oklahoma.

Well we'll see what happens to the blog from here on out.
