It's not as bad as you think...

I've been motivated. Ever since my brother-in-law took a month off from blogging, I kind of followed suit. August/September is a really busy time for me and I apologize for the lag in blogs. Work, moving, fantasy football, travel, moving, church, moving, school, cabin and kids take a lot of time in September...oh yeah, we moved. But thanks Brian for the kick in the toosh.

I have a list of topics that I have been storing up, so hopefully the entertainment will increase. So here is the latest:

Ever been to a big city? How about renting a car or driving your own car through a large city? For those of you residing in any town within 1000 miles of Fargo cannot say you have...with the exception of the Twin Cities. Think back of the time you had to drive through a big city. Feel a little awkward? Feel like everyone on the road automatically assumes you were dropped in the middle of their interstate or downtown? Feel like they know you just came from Fargo, ND where people complain about commuting more than 10 minutes? Don't feel bad. It's not as bad as you think.

Over the past few years,  I have traveled through a few large cities...i.e. Las Vegas, San Diego and the Twin Cities. Every time I do this, I always feel like every car around knows I have no clue what I am doing. I am waiting for a large semi to rear end me and send me to the side of the road with every other tourists. But I don't think its that bad. Yes I know I am driving like a 4'7" elderly women traveling 35 mph in a 65mph....I don't want to miss my exit!! If I miss my exit, then the wife gets mad. I'll take a rear end from a semi any day than trying to work through being lost in downtown Las Vegas.

Next time you are in a big city and not quite sure where you are going. Don't feel bad. Get there safe. 

God bless and thanks for reading.
