since my BIG move is about a month away, i thought it was time to highlight some things i'm looking forward to when i get to minnesota (beyond my friends and family!):
1. light rail: they put these tracks/lines in after i left and are building more as you read this. i'm looking forward to getting cozy with MN public transit since i only have a bike now and really really don't want a car.
2. co-ops: i'm talking about cozy & progressive local neighborhood natural food stores...i never understood why philly only has a handful of these since they have such a strong presence in the twin cities.
3. lake swimming: dear lord i miss lake swimming!
4. dive bars: my mom reads the blog...soooooo i'll just say that i could use more old country tunes while drinking a cold one.
5. minnesota state fair: it is what it is - and that is FANTASTICALLY strange and amazing at the same time. for example, princess kay of the milky way and her court have their likenesses carved out of a 90 pound block of grade A butter...which means that they eventually have to eat their own face!

AWWW, the CC Club. How can we forget the debauchery that happens there? Haven't been there since college. I'm certain nothing has changed.
