I did go to Illinois once & it was their record cold - i almost died, i was so cold! And i couldn't WALK in it, much less DRIVE! But anyway...this cracked me up. I feel for ya! (although - i agree that it IS sooo beautiful!). <br /><br />Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14815407660365883762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2792346563295917833.post-32898108053979849672012-12-13T21:04:27.123-08:002012-12-13T21:04:27.123-08:00you crack me up! and the soggy pants thing... i we...you crack me up! and the soggy pants thing... i wear all types of jeans with my boots and i tuck NON skinny jeans haphazardly into the tops of my boots JUST to keep them dry, its a trademark of mine and everyone makes fun of me for it THAT and my over-sized MANstyle carhartt coat. oh minnesota... how we love you SO much!?ajs {of MN}https://www.blogger.com/profile/12224717405007935431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2792346563295917833.post-23983812560273566112012-12-12T14:12:48.173-08:002012-12-12T14:12:48.173-08:00Oh boy!!!

I might not ever go back. I think our taxes pay enough for some damn salt, amiright? My 8 mile drive should not take an hour.

I was in downtown Minneapolis this morning and of course I wore my new booties which caused me to precariously teeter totter all over the ICE/SNOW COVERED ROADS (the "plowing" is so bad!!) Those snow banks are redick as well. Poor Greg had to scale one to get over to the parking meter. You know you live in Minnesota during winter time when you leave work at 3:30pm while it is still light out so that you can get HOME in time to run errands before 7pm (and then once you're home at 5pm, you finish up work from home hahaha)Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138159251981640478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2792346563295917833.post-38954603804071804122012-12-12T08:44:40.016-08:002012-12-12T08:44:40.016-08:00Pretty sure you need to submit this to be posted o...Pretty sure you need to submit this to be posted on citypages.com or some other MN bog. Great piece. And so accurate. Question...have you ever considered taking Glendale through the NOMI hood to get home? I hate that 394 entrance ramp. Not sure exactly where you live in SLP but it might be worth a try? <br /><br />Soggy bottoms are my least favorite things everrrrrr. <br /><br />I got towed once too. Similar situation as you. The plows had already been through so I thought I was safe. Nope. Those bastards towed me. Never made that mistake again. <br />lo @ crazy ever afterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647412175374780183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2792346563295917833.post-66170529994009575612012-12-12T08:17:13.382-08:002012-12-12T08:17:13.382-08:00bahhaha this is EXACTLY how I felt last night!
Af...bahhaha this is EXACTLY how I felt last night!<br /><br />After trying to get home through DT. I waited at the same stoplight eight times and FINALLY got to drive through it. 2.5 hours later I was home from work.<br /><br />I have yet to understand why those large snow banks are blocking one whole lane of traffic downtown. This is Minnesota, this shouldn't happen.<br />JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06894689835878146995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2792346563295917833.post-74137567358848154892012-12-12T07:51:56.629-08:002012-12-12T07:51:56.629-08:00LOL.

Like, side bent and falling off. And it was a NEW Mazda SUV. That blows. I am going to cry if my tires falls off but seriously, the roads are SHITTY. I want to move somewhere warm.Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11086849596289144922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2792346563295917833.post-65730618641063578942012-12-12T07:43:39.773-08:002012-12-12T07:43:39.773-08:00BAHAHAHAHA!

They turn into long trails, and then you can literally drive without steering because you're hooked up like a train. Just don't try to turn. :)<br /><br />Is it spring yet?Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04505741249401392511noreply@blogger.com
