A common misconception about Minnesota...

...Is that it's always too cold. In fact, it is often too hot. We've skipped good weather entirely, going strait from the one to the other. And now it's raining--thunderstorms. They last about ten minutes, and ten later there is another. It's nearing ninety. It always irritates me to hear people saying "oh, I'd love to live in Florida--What great temperature: hundred degree days! Wouldn't that be heaven!" No, it would be hell. Have fun sweating to death!
I'm doing this to test out a new blog: tomensnaben.blog.com. Yes, against my better judgement, I got a new blog. I'm not transferring my back entries, though. I just need to post until no-one cares what the earlier posts are.
