All you ever wanted to know about how to speak "American." :wink: And about everything else.
Here's the currency converter I always use:

Nope! That would be time for a civil war here in the land of SUV. I think Amsterdam has about the highest prices in Europe though, correct? Good thing you have such a nice train system...Selena van Leeuwen said:
I think you're Central European Time...seven hours in front of us now (GMT +1)? I can never remember with daylight savings time. I use this site:

To figure it out, always makes my head hurt. :wink: That was the toughest part of my old job, figuring out how I could catch those crooks in Schipol when they always had seven hours to get away before we noticed stuff was gone. :lol:
But yes, I get up early. Usually around 430am. Sometimes like today a bit later...and many times like today goofing around instead of working my dog. Which is the whole reason I get up so early in the first place. :lol: That's the only way I can get in good time before those kids start yelling (they don't kennel as well as Annie). :wink:

Yeah, Singapore has a great system like that...came well before that system in London about accessing their downtown...use certain roads at certain times of the day, and it's an additional fee. All electronic, no tolls. Singapore is a neat place, I really like it. One of my favorite cities (but not a good tourist stop) and probably my favorite city of all for food. I really like Indonesian stuff in Amsterdam...there's this one very nice place just south of the Bloumenfontein (sp?) that is great.
I did midnight shifts at a bakery in college...that messed up my sleep patterns badly. Then my oldest son (he's 3) has type 1 diabetes so we have to check his blood sugars at least once a night. Then my youngest son (he's 16 months) is in the process of learning to sleep on his own (we are dumb people with hippie notions of parenting, he's been co-sleeping with us
). So I have to take it where I can.
I do like getting up early, though, it's fun to be up and about "first." Particularly now in MN...we are at a high enough latitude that days start at this time of year around 5am. Just me and the dog.

Ah Jeff, if it was Woody Inc. at the old homestead, we'd have an entirely different situation. Very close to what you describe. There is a reason the dog was housebroken before the kids. Just wait till my last day moderating...I will have a colorful and awe-inspiring meltdown that will do you proud.Jeff Oehlsen said:

Well Selena, you sent some good vibes our way. At about 2pm the dark clouds lifted up and we had a spectacular day in Minnesota. Around 70 degrees and gorgeous. Got in a lot of good swimming for Annie at the lake as she has become a water nut in the last three weeks (literally).
Nice one!
Nice one!
