Another post from Missouri: I would have more posts from here, but my parents' internet connection is sooooooo completely slow that it becomes very difficult to even get online, let alone do any posting or websearching. It's Saturday night, the night before I leave. I'm flying to Los Angeles with my niece tomorrow afternoon and then finally flying back to San Francisco on Monday afternoon. I'm looking forward to getting back home to SF. I'm having a nice time here; I think I'm just anxious to get back to my life and have some alone time too. I'm tired of living out of a suitcase. And I definitely need some alone time. But I am enjoying my family. I think I'd enjoy Kansas City more too if it wasn't so cold here and I could get around easier. I'd love to go out and about in the city, but it's just such an effort to do so with it so cold out and the lack of a car. I know I'm rambling, but this is my first blog in a few days and I'm just happy to be on here.
