unfortunately, I ride the bus to and from work. The wait is very long, but the ride is short. Friday after work there was the funniest conversation going on.
Bus driver: How was your vacation john smith?
js: It was good, I'm going to Michigan on July 2.
BD: How warm does it get down there?
(omgoodness it's the first time i heard someone refer to michigan in a southern location!)
Random lady sitting: I used to live in Minnesota, its cold down there.
( ah yeah)
rls: Alaska is warmer than Minnesota, can you believe it was -60 degrees one time?
(really)
rls: Yeah we moved up home to alaska to warm up.
FROM the horses mouth-Alaska is warmer than MN. I believe it.
At work my coworker she's trying to convince me to stay and go to grad school here. I am skeptical, the sunless winter would be hard for me I think. Also, I'm so far from my people in the south. Anyway she said,"listen the best kept alaska secret is that the winters arent cold. really we just tell everyone that so they dont move up here, we like our space."
Amira, I actually do believe that it is warmer in Alaska than Minnesota!! It is very cold in Minnesota!! :)
