Meandering Muses

You know, on days like this, I really wish I didn't live in Chicago. (I swear this isn't whiney blogging)

My father was chatting with me on the phone yesterday and he was saying how cold it was down there in Alabama. About how it was probably as cold as up here. How he was shivering in the 39 degree weather.

I probably would have said something to that effect if I had been still living in Alabama. Your blood is thinner down there and anything below 60 degrees is considered winter.

But not yesterday, Dad.

We are under a Blizzard Advisory for tomorrow and we are expecting even more snow on top of what we already have. It's a whopping 12 degrees out with a wind chill of who knows. And that's warm! Tomorrow is going to be colder.

But at least I don't live where my friend, Jen lives. She lives up in British Columbia, Canada where it drops down to -40 degrees in the daytime.

Bless her heart.
