Cold, shmold!

In Mother Russia, we think of this as a balmy day.

I'm with Monk! I much prefer this weather over a month full of 100+ degree days.

This isn't that bad. When I lived in the midwest it was like this for 6 months at a time with a constant foot of snow (at least) the whole time.

But it is too cold for me to do shit today. I am chillin' (warmin') at the casa tonight, instead of doing anything else.

I don't mind the cold, I just don't wanna be frost-bitten..
Heck, this cold is nothing. I use to live in really upstate New York (near Lake Placid) and this is warm compared to some of the days I use to stand outside waiting for the bus to come and take me to school!
Okay...talking nearly 30 years ago, but still...lol
Yeah, my blood has definitely thinned in the time I've been gone but I too, grew up in the Great Lakes region. Up there, you go indoors in October and don't come out until April or May. It's cold for us no doubt...but it'll pass quickly.

Nothing matches the night when I lived up there when, after watching the Super Bowl, I had to go outside to help my buddy jump-start his car. Wind chill: 60 below. THAT was cold!
