I won't laugh I promise. I've lived in MN most of my life other than for the three years I spent in Dallas for school. I still remember the morning I rolled out of bed and left for school(class started at 7 am) not really awake, diden't even registar the SNOW on the ground. Drove all the way to school--it was closed. LOL I learned to watch the weather better and keep the number for school in my phone so I could sleep in. :-)
