Julia's last blog has inspired me to do one of my own, about Chicago and Phoenix.
Good things in Phoenix:
-palm trees
-weather
-my job (i wouldn't be allowed to teach in IL w/ out a real certificate)
-schlotzsky's
-the sugar bowl ice cream parlor
-bamboo club asian restaurant
-gas is 50 cents cheaper than chicago
-no i-pass
-property taxes are cheaper than chicago- we just got our statement- $932
-it stays lighter an hour later in the winter here
-no daylight savings time
-my cute little lizard friends
Things that I miss about Chicago:
-white castle, panera, portillo's, loumalnati's, noodles & co, jimmy johns, potbelly's
-friends
-family
-carmen a.k.a. baby a.k.a. margo
-summer and fall weather (but not winter and spring)
-being around people who cheer for the same sports teams as i do- but i must admit there are a TON of cubs fans in phoenix
-grass
That's all I can think of right now.
You hate ipass? I hate coins...
