...need to continue the boot search!

Yay! By now I hope you have all read my previous boohooblog about not being able to find rain boots in a flooding town. Well, there is no need to worry about my poor feet anymore! Here's a brief rundown of my adventurous day:
It started raining last night and soon turned into snow. I woke up at 5:30 this morning to be at football practice at 6:15. It's a good thing I woke up early enough because I soon realized that mother nature is a bitch. In order to get to my car I had to walk through snow drifts up to my butt in the middle of a "blizzard" (I say "blizzard" because it was somewhat mild...) As soon as I get to my car I see drifts of snow going above my bumper. Being the South Dakota girl that I am, I tell myself that I can get through that...with my impala... But I did! I had to drive on unplowed roads but got over to football and after everyone had shown up, found out that classes were cancelled for the day. Yes, UND actually cancelled classes. Amazing! But then I had to drive back. So around noonish, my suitemate tells me that she reserved a pair of rainboots at Target but her parents had other ones for her so if I wanted, I could get the boots. Well, of course I did! So we thought it would be a fantastic idea to head out into the blizzard to go to Target. Driving over there was fine but we got stuck trying to park. A very nice man came to push us out. Well, Kylie and this man pushing with me reversing were no match for the snow. He eventually gave up and got his pickup to tow us out a little bit (I don't know why we had to wait so long for him to come to this conclusion but...) Anyway it all worked out okay. Kylie and I are now safe in our rooms, watching the snow from the windows. And I have a sweet pair of rain boots! Check them out!

Pretty sweet, huh?
