Illinois people?

It's been a really long time since we've done a poll (like months and months) of how many of us are from illinois.  i know there are more and more of us.. aren't there?  :)

Raises hand! !

I am. Moved here last October from Nebraska.

YAY!!  i know that there's more than just you and me though!  :) 

I am here - just hiding at Kohls all afternoon -- one more week and I am done for the summer

yay!  hey kat!  so you work at kohls for the summer eh?  enjoy the discount!  hehe.. :) 

anyone else from the great state of bears and cubs? oh.. and that other team that doesn't need to be mentioned (sox.. ick)

I'm from Illinois too!!!! Lived here almost all my life.

I'm born and raised in Illinois, and returned for almost 9 years and now live in Indiana just a few miles from the Illinois border...does that count?

mspriff- i guess.. but you'll be known as the traitor that jumped ship!  hehehe.. j/k! 

aezell.. me too!  all my whole life!  what part are you guys from? :) i'm nosy and if you don't wanna say.. that's cool.. :)

I grew up in Robinson. I was a traitor for 2 years, I lived in Indianapolis right after college. I live in Camargo now, which is a VERY small town. Only 500 people. I work in Champaign though. Most people at least know where that is. :)

Obs, you're up by Chicago, right?

Born and raised here in good ole East Dundee!

yeah.. i'm in aurora.. which is the furthest west suburb of chicago.. :)  but i was raised in sandwich (yes!  that's the name of the town!).. born in jersey though.. :) 

I'm in Illinois! Chicago. I love Chicago. :)

i love visiting chicago.. i don't think i could live there.. but i love living close enough to go in whenever we want to!  :) 

Aezell1 - I grew up and lived again in Lawrenceville! What fun!

mspriff - let me guess, you live in Vincennes now? My sister was working in Lawrenceville until a few weeks ago. She was making the drive from Robinson.

I'm not from there myself, but my whole family lives there and we visit there quite a lot. (I just got back from Chicago yesterday XP)

Born and raised in Rockford, Illinois... have lived everywhere but there since started college in 1992.  Have lived at least 3 months in... IA, UT, WA, NM, PA (2x), AZ and now TX.

Going home for Labor Day... am a Bear fan through and through!  In fact... the first thing my dh ever heard me say was "Packers Suck"  Arguing with a Packer fan...not him of course ;p (jk all Packer fans ;P )

I won't take offense to the packers joke this time -- I married a bears fan but I was raised in WI so theres no going back.  

Yeah I have been working at Kohls for the discount -- it has been great - I bought a ton of new outfits yesterday off the red tag clearance (90% off plus my discount).  They are mostly business outfits and three pairs of shoes --- I spend $18.  Can't beat it

School starts in a month -- but first I need to go to Scotland

I am from chi-town love it! GO SOX!

chiquita-  sox?  ugh!  cubbies rule!  :) 

kat- yeah.. you're a cheese head.. :) heheheh.. :)

everyone else- hey!  we live in a great state eh?
