Live from Minnesota

As it happened, my 5 year Carleton reunion conflicted with the opening weekend of "Hedwig and the Angry Inch." I chose the one I'd already bought the ticket for.

Save for the 10:00 hour each night as I fretted about how the show was going, it was good to be back in Minnesota. I've been back something like once a year since I graduated, but this was different because there were so many people I recognized there with me (roughly 270 from the class of 2002, or around 50%).

That said, I did find myself missing T-Town, if for no other reason than it's not crazy humid and hot there. When I arrived late at night, I remember thinking "Yeah, I could see myself living in Minnesota again." That beautiful thought went away around 9:00 the next morning.

Air conditioning! I need air conditioning!
