Two things, completely different.

LJ terrorists have been eating my posts, so here's two stories that have absolutely nothing to do with one another

"My favorite part of Chicago is always how empowered it makes me feel."

I totally relate to this. I feel average there and I like that. Here I feel a bit subhuman because I don't drive and my decision on whether or not to go somewhere is often based on transit and more importantly LACK of transit or inconvenience of transit. In Chicago I can assume that it will be relatively easy to get anywhere in an acceptable amount of time and that is so liberating. I want to live like that always.

Agreed! What is so normal for Chicagoans makes me feel like a superhero, and STL just can't wrap its head around transit. Maybe Seattle will be the same way and we'll all decide to live there forever.

I think you should live in California (near me) forever. I offer a great chauffeur service although I intend to check out the public transit, as well. I know how you feel about the friends of friends thing. It doesn't take too much just to make it work out for a bit and then you basically don't ever have to see them again!

That sounds like a great idea! I think Cali as a whole offers good transit (or so I hear). St. Louis has had me down lately. I should post on that.

I think this was particularly bad beacuse it somehow managed to be an even split right down the table. Usually you can kind of mingle, but this was just a one-or-the-other situation. And the 'other side' was being rude and it was hard to avoid. I kind of wish I had video evidence.
