Obligatory "Holy fuck! It's cold out there!!" post

Holy fuck! It's cold out there!
Since I've been at work it has warmed up to -11°F (-24°C). When I left the house this morning it was -16°F (-27°C).
Yup. It's Minnesota, and it's winter. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Could be worse...there's no wind.

Yeah, days like this make you wonder why you're in Minnesota, don't they? :)

If you are colder than Minnesota, you are also colder than Antarctica! When it was -16 here this morning, it was a balmy +19 there! (At McMurdo base, at least. It's way colder at the pole because of the altitude)

One good thing about this last frigid week...it has been really, beautifully sunny. Just don't go out and play.

But I *am* going out to play next weekend. Up by Duluth, no less. Of course, by then 30° will feel like a frickin' heat wave!

I am still in bed, all covered up, drinking hot cocoa, nice and warm. :)

I do have a cold though, but Ty is taking care of me.

I had today off to work on a project for school. I just read it was -42 in Embarass, MN this morning. Now that is fuck cold.

The kids are all cabin-fevery today. J looked at the outside temp and said, "Why don't you take them out to run around? It's 23 degrees out there!" Uh, honey, that's 2.3, so NO.

[jackass]It's kind of chilly here, too.

It's only going to be 40 degrees today.

Brrrr.[/jackass]
