The New Year

It's so weird to think that today is the last day of 2010. An entire year has gone by. It seems like just yesterday I was running down the hallway when my mom would interrupt my sprint and have me go all the way back and walk, oh wait that was yesterday. =P I've been thinking about how things seem to go faster and faster, and with so much to do and so little time it's like you can live through an entire year and totally miss it. An entire year has gone by. 365 days, 8760 hours, 525,600 hours. How crazy is that? It makes me look back and really appreciate the life I have to live, and reminds me not to live with regrets. In the big scheme of things it's not worth it. Why live such a short amount of time with regrets and remorse? So here's to 2011, and all the time that wont be wasted on trivial issues, and minor problems, but rather all the new memories, it will bring. I love you all and am so glad to have you in my life!

Dear Tourists

Welcome the Midwest, here in Minnesota, you will find lots of activities, especially during our cold, miserable season many refer to as winter. If you are intending to pass through, or actually stay and visit for a few weeks, you are in for quite a treat. We have winds that will chill you to your bones and leave you shivering cold as you exit any heated building. We have snow reaching heights that will trap you indoors for days at a time. We enjoy slipping and sliding down freeways and highways causing collisions, which create lots of damage. But that's certainly not all, If you are not lucky enough to enjoy these activities and get to hit the slopes, you will enjoy going down hills, breaking bones, and getting whip lash. Or you could enjoy skating on lakes, if you pretend not to see the warning signs stating "Thin Ice" Imagine how much fun you will have falling through the ice and freezing to death.

Please do not have too much fun, and be sure to come back and visit us again soon =)

Yours truly,

The Minnesota Residents Who Are Dumb Enough To Live Here Year Round
