Top Ten

I woke up this morning to find that it was 25 degrees outside. I was not thrilled. I made a cup of apple cider (which I burned my mouth on) and went off to my 8 am exam. This happens to be the class that I walk 10 minutes to. By the time I got to the building I was beet red from the cold and had a runny nose. As I was walking, I thought to do a post about why I don't like cold weather, rather than what most people do about why they like cold weather.

Top 10 Reasons Why I Hate Cold Weather
(in no particular order)
1. No matter how many layers I put on, I'm still uncomfortable.
2. My lips get chapped and my skins dries out.
3. My nose begins to get runny.
4. I get in my car and shake because I'm so cold and can't warm up fast enough.
5. My legs are like popsicles.
6. The sun shining doesn't help.
7. I have to wear a heavy coat and things on my head.
8. Socks are not optional.
9. My windshield freezes.
10. It's not hot.

I could come up with more.

Also thought I should note why I like Texas weather. It's never cold for very long!
Here are the highs for the next 10 days:

Wed-10 (42), Thurs-11 (57), Fri-12 (61), Sat-13 (64), Sun-14 (74),
Mon-15 (72), Tues-16 (59), Wed-17 (61), Thurs-18 (63), Fri-19 (66)

Although it's fore casted to rain 4 days next week, at least it will be a bearable temperature.

At least if it is going to be this cold we should get to enjoy snow :)
But I love the excuse to use the fireplace!

I hate winter.
And I hate how my birthday is in the winter.
I can't do swimming pool birthday parties :(
