ICE to meet you!

     It's cold here.  I mean really cold.  Like frozen water and coat and mittens cold.  This is not normal, I live in North Carolina where if it drops below 65 they cancel school and roll up the sidewalks. Thank god it's not raining/snowing because I literally don't know how the people around here would handle that.  I'd say there'd be rioting in the streets, but everybody would just get cold and tired and go home.

     Personally, I like the cold.  I keep my house at 68 degrees, I like a brisk chill in the air, so I'm happy as a clam.  But you should see the people around here!

     It was announced that temperatures would drop below freezing for about three days.  Not even any precipitation, just cold air.  And there was a major run on basic supplies at nearly every store in town.  All three of the local wal-marts reported being out of toilet paper, bottled water, diapers, batteries, lunchables and Pabst Blue Ribbon.

     Like I said.  We don't know how to handle cold around here.  God forbid it actually snow.  They'd shut down everything for a week and declare a state of emergency if the sky got a little cloudy with it this cold.

     My point is, I want to live somewhere where people aren't so monumentally stupid.

     I hear Seattle is nice.

     Tomorrow:  New stuff!
