I NEED A SNUGGIE, STAT!

Dec 10, 2009 12:23

It's 21oF (-6C). And that's just in my office. Okay, that's the outside temp, but it feels that cold in my office. I'm sitting here in a sweater and with my coat draped over my shoulders and I'm still cold. Man, I'd love to be wrapped in a thick, warm blanket with an electric heater at my feet. And maybe a cat or two on my lap ( Read more... )

beginning of a new ice age, me me me bitching

My hood is so big all I could see was my feet as I walked, hoping no car came zipping around the corner as I cross the street. It's SO cold; way too early in the year. At least it wasn't windy here this morning like it was last night.

I do have a heater at my feet. It's not really helping. :P

Cats are wonderful warm things. Last night I had one on chest and one in my lap as I lay on the couch wrapped in a shawl with a heating pad on.

My JT is like a living blast furnace. He was on my lap last night, and I had to put him down because I was getting heat exhaustion. LOL

I'm glad I was walking with co-workers, because, yeah, no peripheral vision at all.

*pets you* Yeah, it was -8F here this morning, and it's currently 11F. Brr.

The only good thing is that the snow flurries this morning didn't amount to anything, but, damn, that wind is killer. DO NOT WANT!

Winter? Not a fan.

I'll second that!

I used to keep one of those inexpensive polyester pile blankets in my desk drawer for days like that. They're lightweight so they don't take up a lot of room and it warmed me up nicely when I threw it on my lap and covered my legs. They can be picked up for under $5 at various places here. They wash up great and come in handy for the kitties as well. And did I remember to say lightweight and cheap? :)

Yeah, those sound like the blankies I can get at the dollar store. The thing is, usually it's way too hot here, and I'm ready to strip down to my skivvies. Except today, not so much.

This is all caused by Global Warming.

Yep. Let's roast another polar bear over an open fire, yes? ;-)
