      Kelsey and some friends are on the way to Nebraska and saw an interesting semi. This is the conversation that followed.

      Kelsey: We just passed a semi carrying hot tubs and a fire engine. #NEroadtrip

      Me: It is the "things that have to do with water" semi. You didn't see the boxes of nalgenes or the thousands of tiny balloons.

      Kelsey: or that has to do with hot things. Which explains the models. :) 

      Me: I assume the models were riding in the hot tubs... #thatisthewaytoroadtrip

      Kelsey: Oh most definitely. Except it's terribly cold, windy, and rainy so they didn't look very happy.

      Me: That is why they have the hot tub. If I can hottub in -30 degrees they should be able to handle some rain and wind.

      Kelsey: Well really I think they were just upset because their hair was getting all messy.

      Me: Ahh... That is fair.

      Andrea really likes elephants, so when I found this picture on the interwebs I sent it along to her. Here is the conversation that followed.

       

      Me: Elephants!

      Elephants

      Andrea: Noooooooooo waaaaaaaaay. I knew u worked this morning so i thought maybe u saw an elephant on the way to work, and i was all excited. But that was great too. Haa

      Me: Um... where would I see an elephant on the way to work?

      Andrea: On the street duh

      Me: Oh right... just down on Elephant Ave.

      Andrea: No, snelling or rice or something. There is no elephant ave. Now you're just being silly

       

      *Andrea just started blogging. Check her out.

      I have been wearing my second favorite North Dakota shirt since volleyball tonight. I feel like I wasted it by only wearing it for half a day.
