ohhhhhhh...... myyyy.......

so. driving home from minneapolis last night I was trying to relax and listen to jack johnson. I was trying not to think about the day before; the confusion, the stress, the anger, stupid second guessing, the gas that was wasted, not to mention the time..... if you have ever been lost before, I'm sure the last few sentence gave it away. anyway, back to jack johnson, the song "staple it together" came on and in one verse he says something like 'hate is such a strong word', and I would agree with it. and I also try not to use it unless I really mean it.

as of right now, I HATE MINNEAPOLIS.

I'm sorry to those who live there who probably think of it how think of my home city, but I have never been lost like that before. I'm sure that all my sisters will be blogging about this (and others who had similar experiences recently...) and all I can say is I will mostly agree with them on their rantings.

it will be a while before I go back, and all I can sum up from my tired mind are these little sayings...
BLAST YOU 694!!!!!

BLAST you FRANCE AVE!!!

BLAST YOU WHITE BEAR AVE!!!!

BLAST YOU 100!!! BLAST YOU ALL!!
oh and Snelling..... a BIG BLAST FOR YOU!!!!!

and for me sisters,
memorable quotes, from our weary and over wrought heads:

kim - "Hey look! Gas!" (<- meaning geese)
pam - "It would really suck if there was a highway on this interstate..."
cor - "I. Hate. John. Martin. Ave."
kim- "Oh tiger snails, zebra muscles, same thing..."
(and my favourite)
bec- "Yea, like, they don't have a skunk skwak--skwak--!"

and.... one lesson, of many, we learned:
'don't buy milk shakes on road trips... bad things happen...'

Good thing we had sara groves to sing to us through all of that torturusness..She still made it all worth it.

Also, I REALLY like your picture. I just might have to print it and keep it by my desk for a while.

Kay, where was that picture when we needed it? I'm thinking even that tiny little bit of map might have helped us out!

I. Still. Hate. John. Martin. Ave. And. Milkshakes.

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
