Home Sweet Home...Illinois

I made it back to good ol' Illinois today...back to the roots. So my mom picked me up from the airport, two hours after I had landed (she was working, so it's OK). She is a car salesperson and had one of the new Mercury Milans with her. It's a nice car other than the fact that the clock is analog with just lines, you have to figure out the numbers...I hate clocks like that. I mention this to my mom and she is like "Stephanie, that's an analogue clock, the other kind is digital"...I swear!!! She thinks I'm like the dumbest person in the world! My mom is constantly trying to "teach" me things (that I learned in elementary school!!) I can already tell, this may be a long visit home.
