could be the jetlag.....

or it could be the realisation (as i walked back from the art institute of chicago) that i am doing yet another big trip solo...kinda thought when i met ben that i wouldn't have to be doing that - of course as our relationship wore on it became obvious that we probably wouldn't do this sort of trip together....guess i'm just feeling a bit sad and a bit lonely and a long way from home....

tomorrow will be better - even though i have been staying with my cousin and his family (who have been fantastically welcoming) i am longing to be with people who know me really well...

so tomorrow i'm flying to Syracuse to stay with good friends in Ithaca and that will be great - can't wait to see them both and even though they are sad that ben and i broke up, they are delighted that i'll be coming to visit....

so hopefully as the jetlag wears off my mood will improve....

otherwise have had a good and busy few days - into chicago both days on the train....yesterday walked a long way in search of a gallery i'd previously been to, only to find it no longer there! and today i went to the art institute of chicago to see the famous Seurat (worth seeing) and there was a Matisse exhibition on - not all of his best and most famous stuff but a couple of ones i like that i hadn't seen before so all good...

ok signing off now and hoping next time i log on the blues will have won!
