Stop the presses. It's been announced that Stephanie Sablich, age 23, of Hyde Park just beat her personal record for commuting home. In a confluence of events, the (charming and devastatingly witty) woman somehow managed to make it from her school to her apartment with a time of 59:04.
"I was thinking about my bed the entire time" quips Stephanie as she collapses right inside her door. She attributes her success to the following: walking really fast because it's cold out, a maniacal train conductor who (oops) just blew past that stop at Racine, a near sprint through the underground tunnel to State Street, an even crazier bus driver who apparently doesn't think that Lake Shore Drive should be seen at any speed but *blur,* and having her keys ready at the door.
Plans for celebrating this victory? A long bath, soup for dinner, and getting cozy in bed with a book...
