I wrote a friend who lives in Louisiana the other day mentioning that I finally peeled a few layers of clothing off as the temperature was a whopping 28-degrees outside. She thought that was a very funny thing to say. But, it was true! You have to pretty thick-skinned to live up in the great north woods--don't ya know!

Posted - Feb 10 2010 : 1:22:21 PM ROFL!!! How true is all that! To save money, my school has turned down the heat...way down. We FINALLY had a snow day today and that was just cause there was 10+ inches around here...that alone is not enough to stop us though...it was the extra wind that pushed it all around. I'm sure they turned the heat waaaay down today...and since we are about to go into a 4-day mid-winter break on Friday...there won't be much heat tomorrow. We just wear another layer.
I've heard that there are a lot of former Michiganders that end up in AK as well.
That info was pretty funny though.... |
