I used to work for a rehab center for seals....I can tell you its better they were scared off. Please dont ever let your DD or yourself for that matter get to close...little monsters are really cute but they can do some serious damage!!! Great thay you attempted it though...took my DD to a kids fair this weekend and she played with the snakes, frogs

A seal safari sounds cool.

HEY - I thought of you this morning. I was at my favorite bagel place this morning and there were 2 nurses drinking wine. At first I thought it might be some new grape juice - because this is a place with juices, fruits, bagels, coffee, etc. They said they just got off work so this is their happy hour!! They were really nice - work in ICU and said it is so stressful they come for wine and then go and sleep.

Here in Minnesota, some bars open as early as 6:00AM primarily for people getting off overnight shifts.

there are a few days where she could have used a glass of wine at 8am after dealing with her commute!


I feel for ya!


I used to commute- I'd spend over an hour in traffic on my way home.

I had a gorgeous commute in Germany, BUT 2.5 hours each way. YUP! I just never felt like it was though. It was the only time I had me time back then and I enjoyed traveling through the forest and taking in the beauty of it all. Now my commute is 45 minutes or not at all. Depending if I work from home or not.

My commute is typically 45 minutes as well, but if it snows - forget it.

When we bought our house out in the country almost 11 years ago, the traffic was not like it is now - Minneapolis has grown like crazy.
