In honor of the Artic blast we just got:

It's so cold in Minnesota....

...when you inhale your nostrils stick together
...when you blow bubbles, they freeze and you can pick them up
...knobs on car radios don't turn because they are frozen
...men walk around with icicles hanging from their beards
...Frosty the Snowman ask to come in the house
...they sometimes have to cancel winter survival classes
...the #1 response to "How are you?" is "Cold"
...we saw a streaker and he was frozen in place
...when it warms up to -10 degrees F you can unzip your coat
...your long johns have goosebumps
...Rudolph's nose gets so cold it turns blue
...there are dogs frozen to fire hydrants
...you have ice on both sides of your windshield
...the #1 Christmas gift is a car survival kit
...there is nothing else to talk about
...that lawyers will sometimes put their hands in their own pockets
...your garage door freezes shut and you can't get in (or out)
...people in Chicago say "It;s cold here, but at least it isn't Minnesota."
...your car door freezes shut and you can't get in (or out)


Stay warm!

I think the snow is worse than the cold. I actually live in NE Iowa but close to the MN border. We had such nice winters for awhile- not much snow. Then last winter showed up and surprised us down here in NE Iowa. Too much snow and cold. I like the winters were it doesn't snow (much). I loved the brown Christmases we had for awhile.

I just went out for lunch and thought that it seemed nice outside.

I checked the weather when I returned to the office and it says 7f, feels like -6f.

Maybe it was the sun.

I too just came back from Lunch. It's sunny out and it feld spring like. I didn't zipper my coat nor put on my gloves. I walked casually from the building to my car and about town.

Then I came back and see that it is 1 degree F out side with no wind chill. Yes it does feel like spring in the air.

I must be in Minnesota.
