BwwwwaaaaHaHaHa!!! Although... I didn't know it was possible for Washingtonians TO run out of hot air. And I speak as a Washingtonian.
Too funny!! I wish you kids would stop sending us the cold..... the temp. is supposed to drop this week to the single digits with a wind chill in the negative teens!! BRRRRRRRR.
When people complain I always tell them they could live in Salekhard Russia, on the North Pole (Where Coops is from). When we were there it was 26 below 0. Now that was cold!!!
ROFLOL! I have to say having lived down here for a year and a half now, the Florida ones are so true. :-) You should see what they call cold around here. Funny thing is, most of them are originally from much further north. That said, I can't even fathom the temperatures you are dealing with.
I remember being in ND when the snow was so deep we let the dog out the window to potty....Tim hadn't shoveled us out yet that morning and we couldn't open the door.
One of our best friends was a weather guy...he would always give us heads up on a storm even before the news knew about it....that way we could get to the commissary to get groceries before everyone else did.
See the advantages you have!
You're a mess. So funny and so true! ;)
