It's official: I have become another faceless working stiff in the American workforce. As I write this blog post from a cafe near the office in downtown Chicago, my mind keeps wandering back to Vegas. I had a great time this summer, and I'm really sad that it ended so quickly.
Anyway, I finally moved up to Chicago last week and I'm loving it so far. Brandon and I drove a 26' moving truck up from Austin on Wednesday, stopping only in Little Rock to say a quick hello to James and Kelsey. Our place in Wrigleyville is in a great neighborhood with lots of young people; most of the people I've met have been very open and friendly. The summer weather up here is beautiful, and I think I'm gonna really like living in Chicago.
I met Andrew at their new CardRunners office on Division St yesterday afternoon to see the place and record a video (which I subsequently forgot to upload last night). The office is HUGE and even has its own full-sized kitchen -- it's more than big enough for CR's needs and will likely double as a nice staging area for pre-partying.
Nate, Meyvis, and another friend of theirs from Yale are coming up this weekend for a quiz bowl competition, but Nate said they ran into some problems registering at the last minute and might just forget about it and enjoy themselves up here instead.
