I almost froze to death last night. I really don’t think I’ve ever been so cold in my entire life. At 6 am I woke up and decided that I needed to sit in the driver’s seat with the heat on. Then I went to McDonald’s for coffee and a delicious egg mcmuffin. When I called my parents to complain about being cold, my dad explained to me that being under the sleeping bag is not the same as being in the sleeping bag…further proof that I am not the camping type. When I went back to sleep around 7:30 inside the sleeping bag I was much warmer. Still, I don’t think I’ll be sleeping in my car again until I get somewhere warmer.
On the bright side, I went to the Mall of America today. Oh. My. God. I have found my happy place. Really, I know it’s sad, but today was the best day I’ve had so far. It helped that I didn’t drive all day. Walking around the mall was a nice change from driving. Anyone who’s into shopping should really go sometime, you will not be disappointed. Let me know if you’re going, I wanna come.
After a lovely day of shopping, I drove to Plymouth, MN where I will be spending the night in a somewhat dirty Day’s Inn. At least it’s warm. I had dinner at a restaurant called Joe’s Sports Café, which was really good. For the rest of the evening, I’m going to watch the Red Sox beat the Yankees, take a shower, and get a good night of sleep. Tomorrow my goal is Sioux Falls, Mitchell, or Kennebec, SD.
