at upstream brewery in omaha. woke up in a truck-stop motel about 15 miles outside of omaha today. i cleaned up, and regained my vigor (9not easy given yesterday's story) by noon and walked out to the highway to hitcchhike. after flying a sign for 1.5 hours that said CHICAGO - HARD TRAVELIN :) i had no luck so made a new sign that said OMAHA. i was INSTANTLY picked up by two awesome guys from west africa who were attending school in omaha. they ttok me into down where i had heard from a trusted friend i could catch to chicago. well... the chicago proviso train went blowin tbru... no stoppin. i considered waiting for another one, but decided instead to swallow my pride (it was really hard) and buy a 80 dollar greyhound ticket to chi. so now i am gettinnng drunk at upstream brewery and trying to figure out if i made the right choice or if i'm a pussy.
when i get to chicago and my friend's house, i will add more neat to all these posts which i have been making wiith my phone.
