today was the first day in springfield. we made a stop halfway there in bloomington and i bought some cds (elp trilogy, syd barrett the madcap laughs, jeff beck blow by blow). wr drove down and i bought a few posters, a tapestry, and a pink floyd shirt + a belt and 2 buckles :) sleep is coming very very hard and the pull out couch is very very uncomfortable. its raining a ton here so we cant do much. i miss my home and my bed and my room and my cats and my friends and my tv and my shower. tomorrow will be full of activities.
