ummm today was the greatest thing ever

boy is sarcasm hard to convey in text.
i went home this weekend and saw a really good comic book exhibition at krannert art museum. it was a good weekend in which i saw three plays at the performing arts building and saw my family and ate extremely spicy frog legs.
but today
today was shit. i got up at like half past 5 this morning so that my sister and brother could take me to the bus station. i got on my bus and not 30 minutes later the bus had broken down. we were stuck there for 4 hours and then were shoved onto an almost full bus going to chicago. i got on that bus at the exact same time i was supposed to be catching my connecting bus in chicago to dekalb. so i got into chicago about 2 hours after i was supposed to have gotten into dekalb.
they refused to refund my money or to exchange my ticket for the next bus(which would not have been until 10 at night) i did not feel like being that late back here(i was supposed to help an instructor put up a still life which was actually finished by the time i eventually got into town)
i ended up catching a metra into elburn and my friends picked me up. this probably saved me some extra money because i would have had to buy another ticket for 10 pm to get back here anyways.
so all in all it took me 12 hours to get from champaign to dekalb
which in real time (or by a car) should only take about 3 hours.
yep. today was the greatest.
