I'm in a Rhyme Zone; A Different Time Zone


Colorado Springs is experiencing a blizzard and sub-zero temps. Not sure which by-product of cold weather I'm enjoying more:

- hot chocolate-burned tongues
- dry skin
- trucks plowing snow outside bedroom window before Matt Lauer makes waking up an enjoyable proposition
- frozen snot
- spending half an hour bundling up children who stay outside ten minutes
- constantly erect nipples (big fan!)
- hat hair + static cling = frightened dinner party
- vaseline's many uses
- asking about grocery delivery services and getting awkward silence in response ("That's how they did it in Boston. You mean we have to drive in this weather?")

And you want to move there why?

I think I am the only Tampa Blogger who'd prefer that weather as to 80 degrees over and over and over again...

Well, the children problem is easy. The next time they go out, just lock the door. I mean, it works with cats

You're not, John - my mom lives in New Mexico where most of the roads leading out of her town are closed because of snow. All I could think of was, "Wanna trade?"

I'd honestly settle for, gee, I don't know, 50s?!

Seriously - John - I give you a month with weather like that & you'll be begging to be back in Tampa! That's what I'm thinking back here in Iowa. More like "WHAT AM I THINKING?!". Kate - be glad you have snow. Here's it's just COLD. :( Stay warm!
