Stuck in Bloody London ;)
Bobby and I got up this morning thinking we were going to the airport and were surprised to find out that our flight had been canceled due to weather…and that there weren’t any flights to Chicago until tomorrow. Although it’s not so good for our pocket books…we did get to stay at a cooler hotel in a different part of town and we got to go to the Design Museum, which I was really sad we had missed. It was raining like crazy today so it wasn’t as fun walking from the tube…but it was well worth the wet walk.
There were lots of really amazing designed objects/furniture/fashion but our favorite at the museum was this interactive video installation. I’m going to post a video of that above this post if you want to watch it. Basically you could hit “record” and choose a spot on the screen and you’d record a one second video of yourself that would be placed on the projected screen. The coolest part about it is that you’re little video stays there until someone comes in behind you and chooses that same square to replace you. Until then, you really are a part of that art work. :) You can see in the video (that I’ll be posting next) that Bobby and I are doing some silly stuff…it was really fun!
Leaving tomorrow!
So, it’s past ten o’clock and I still haven’t gotten my workout in or my clothes packed for tomorrow, but I plan to be up for the next few hours I guess…I should be able to get it all done. I just got an email from Bobby explaining everything I need to do and where I need to go to get to our hotel. I was a little nervous about going by myself but I think I’m gonna be fine. I’ll just need to figure out something to do Thursday and Friday during the day since Bobby will be working. I might just find a coffee shop and try to adjust to the time change and do some blogging….I just don’t want to go to far and get lost or something. If anybody has any suggestions about places I should go in London…tell me now. I know for sure we are going to the TATE Modern Museum, 
Piccadilly Circus, on a double decker bus tour, to the Portabella Road Market (I have to find the artist lady for Libby), The London Eye (a great big ferris wheel) and some other various places. So excited!!!
More than anything I’m just excited to see Bobby! It’s been like 5 days without him now and I am beside myself…I mean I’m busy and have tons going on but I’m so used to him being around when I get home for work and getting up together in the morning. I think my trip to Findlay over the weekend really helped because I was surrounded by my family and friends and not thinking about it constantly…but its gonna be so awesome when I see him again! yay!
Bridget came over tonight and I showed her the “rounds” for the kitties…she’s awesome for watching them….I just hope they don’t get too lonely without us here at night…they’re used to us not being home during the day but not at night. Hopefully I don’t get home and they’ve trashed the place. haha. At least they have each other though, I guess if it was just one kitty I’d worry more.
Well, I guess I’m off to watch the news and work out on the eliptical machine…and shower, and pack, and all that good stuff. Oh! And pray for me not to get lost in Heathrow Airport!
