Hehe we went to the Scarborough Faire today. SO fun in the snow, everyone was cheerful (if chilly) and a huge happy line for warm drinks.
Very enjoyable, I prefer chilly to hot myself! I dislike being hot =p

So that's what happened.
Last night, after an extra two blankets and cuddling so that my sweetie and I were closer than we should be allowed to be, we finally turned on the heat. It's HOUSTON for love of the gods!
And, about 3am, I could hear hail on the windows. Pretty impressive cold.

It's difficult, but I've learned to live with it.. 
seriously though, the military stuck me in Alaska for 3 1/2 years; I NEVER want to be cold again.... bring on global warming.

Sorry guys, my bad! Every time my mom and I go up north to visit relatives, hell freezes over and there's a cold snap. So uh... y'know, if I mention family anytime this summer, STOP ME.

Oh come on. It's Texas. There must have been less than a centimetre. xD
We don't put our coats away till July.

In Reno? I wouldn't have thought it. *USA noob*
I think my cousin was telling me that it snowed once (barely dusting the ground) and school was cancelled. She was in North Carolina at the time, I believe.
BAH. Forty below, and nothing's cancelled. And our car heating died that day. xD
Warm blankets + fireplace + hot chocolate = WIN.

you fool! 30 F weather is DANGEROUS. Everyone is advised to stay indoors on those days!!
And I only wish school got cancelled for cold weather. The ice was a totally different story: Texans don't know how to drive on ice. THAT'S dangerous XD
