Minneapolis or Bust!

Well, in the short time since I last wrote, it has been decided: Minneapolis is the destination of choice for Spring Break. Besides having a number of friends of mine, there are 3 concerts that I'm excited about seeing, and a number of museums, according to Haley. Then there's also the Mall of America, a place where I have never been, but was never that upset by not seeing it. I suppose it would be entertaining to check it out from an ironic standpoint, just how absolutely ridiculous the whole place is.

I know in the last post I said something about heading to warmer climes, and then turn around and decide to head further north than my current latitude, but that happens, right? I mean, there can't be a huge difference between Iowa City and Minneapolis in terms of weather, right? According to weather.com, the current thermometer reading in IC is 10* (can an asterisk be used as a degree sign? I think so. At least until keyboards come with a button for the a little raised circle, for the one time that I'll ever use it. Seriously, I think this is the first time I've ever been faced with this dilemma), and the temperature in Minneapolis is 12! So maybe it'll actually be warmer there! Who would've thought?!
