So the truck is packed(mostly)... we have the keys to the new place..all we gotta do is drive 2k miles to get to the new house!
i am so excited to be moving to chicago. I know I will be cold...and you people always honk when you drive. I will have to learn proper honking rules( in so cal if you honk you get the finger or shot) Any help would be appreciated.
So many things to learn and places to see... we're gonna be in 60634 until Spring then decide what to do.
Can I still be a Broncos fan?
I am not some 20something who wants to party. I am a married/grama 40sumthing who is sick of her 115 mile round trip DRIVE to work + 150 tolls a month...and is ready to have a good time and enjoy her life.
DH got a nice raise when he xfered to Chi... so now I can take a little break.

I will have to get used to everything being identified by the intersection!

Do not go too far east from North Ave and Nordica unless you are just driving through without getting out of the car. Between Narragansett and Western the area around North Ave is generally pretty crappy.

Regardless-Good Luck.

Welcome to Chicagoland! You are in for year-round fun in this wonderful city.

My best advice: take public transport when possible- parking is a pain.
