    Default Gad-damm it's cold!

    Sitting here in Austin and it is like 34 and rainy.

    Add to that this apartment sucks in the insulation department. I can't keep it warmer than 60.

    I actually made a Target run and bought an electric blanket.

    I need me a girlfriend to keep warm at night all snuggled together and leg twisty stuff.

    This reminds me of my youth!

    I had the same problem last week. It got cold as hell here in Tampa. Maybe to northern people it wasn't cold but I thought it was downright miserable! I even bought my dog a sweater and she actually seemed to not mind wearing it which was unusual. She's a nudist My apt. is leaky as hell to and I had my heat cranked all the way up and it was still cold. I need to get an electric blankie or something but hopefully it won't get that cold again.

    Audrey, is that 6" of snow in Auburn?

    Yesterday in Virginia it was 70 and I was at the barn riding in a t-shirt. This morning it snowed.

    Is it the end of the world?

    Tell me about it! I hate going outside when it's cold like this. I just took a hot bath though, and it felt soooooo good!

    It's wierd. In Vancouver, it can be plus 5 degrees but freezing to death. Right now, it's gone to -1 at night with a -10 wind chill which sucks even more. Alot of people scoff at our temps because it doesn't go down to low but all the water in the air (Rainforest!) makes the cold soak into one's body!

    Not only is it cold here in Dallas. But I have a cold. This old house that I am in is drafty, and I am trying to get over a sore throat. Guess it is another night of watching Olympic coverage for me.

    Yeah I don't wanna hear about it, TexAss. It's currently 16° here in Memphis, and our roads are caked with ice because of the freezing rain that started last night and didn't end until about 5pm today. We're looking at a low of about 8º overnight.

    Bleh!

    It's been chilly in Portland the past couple of days, too, but at least it's sunny and food and coffee are in walking distance. Not that it's really affected me as I've been curled up watching Freaks and Geeks on DVD all weekend . . .

    I'm in Mass... it's going to hit 3 degrees tonight. I went grocery shopping and I think while I was loading them in the car my nipples froze and snapped off.

    Grass Valley (20 min up from Auburn) - they got 3-4" in Auburn but it melted really fast... most in GV melted throughout the day except here... were in the colder part of GV... still got a good few inches with more commin...

    That sounds really cold. Does your spit freeze? I always wondered if Jack London was bullshitting about that.

    I know you guys are kididng around, but in JL's story "to build a fire" (the one where the guy freezes to death), the narator talks about how he can spit and it freezes before it hits the ground. I wondered if it was an urban legend. I've never been anywhere REALLY cold.

    ^^^ not a legend. It gets so cold in New England sometimes that you can throw a boiling pot of water in the air and it 'rains' down as ice within three tenths of a second.

    i'm perched under the aircon trying to cool my limbs...

    i would love crunchy hair about now - i'm kinda over the heat, drought and clamminess..

    thought this might warm the thread a little

    Nope - when I lived in the upper pennisula of michigan the test was done one day and the spit froze. That was a pretty f'in cold day.

    Come Summer, I will be putting out a Gad-damm it's hot! message when the temperatures are hitting 110F. I like pre-winter and post-winter - but those three months in summer just suck ass here.

    We're getting stupid icy roads here, too, Rhia. It's not that it's just horrible here, it's just because we've been averaging upper 60's or higher all winter. There was a record breaking high on Thursday here (81, I think), and now we've got highs in the mid-30's. We're not adjusted to this cold weather!
