Well the internet in the Foxhole doesn't want to cooperate right now, so I'm preparing my post ahead of time. Much the same to you, of course. I made it to Syracuse! Not that much of a surprise really, but I was shaking with excitement all the same. I really did miss everything here.
Today went pretty well for day one of the adventure. I woke up at 630 when Matt and Dan got up for school, so I had plenty of time to pack seeing as I hadn't really done much on Tuesday. Unfortunately, even though I said good bye to them, Matt and Dan came home to find me still there. I managed to close all my doors and secure my bike to the back of my car, and it didn't budge a bit on the highway. I finally left at 3 to a well earned "LEAVE!" from both brothers.
Syracuse hasn't changed. Only I can't go into my room in the Foxhole and I don't have to get up for class tomorrow. Went to a great night of open-mic entertainment at Funk and Waffles with Neil. While the band formerly known as Obamarama didn't play either of Lisa's favorite songs, and open-mic was sharing the stage with another show, it was still very memorable. One man played a ukulele. I carried a bass drum. There was rap without the Kid Fresh. Ethan sang Weezer. Neil refused to play the Police but gave in eventually. I met a friend of Ethan's who's a writer and we played ping pong with the names of authors we liked.
I'm upstairs on the couch, it's a bit of an odd feeling, I keep thinking I should go downstairs and go to bed. Tomorrow brings coffee and writing and the hunting down of Professor Flowers. And hopefully internet. And contacting all the Universities I want to see in the coming weeks.
There's a national geographic magazine on the table that has a list of places to see in the US. I'm definitely home.

Rap without the Kid Fresh
sounded more like ARF ARF ARF!
