Me 0; Cold Weather 1

I've become a serious weather wimp. The last 7 years I was south of I-10 in New Orleans. For two years before that, I was in Seattle. I've had to whip out wool sweaters about 10 tens in the last 9 years and I'm still wearing the Gore-tex jacket and LL Bean Fleece I bought at an outlet mall 10 years ago.

This morning like at idiot, I walked outside to the vehicle on the way to work wearing my flip-flops. I can attribute this illogical decision to a few things:

1. I just came back from a week in New Orleans where I sweated in 75 degree and 65% humidity weather.
2. I got very little sleep since I drove around Saturday night/Sunday morning in Bristol, VA at 1 am looking for a wireless internet router I could piggy back off of. The La Quinta's router went out, and I had to post to a newroom for my class.
3. Trouble kept me awake with his coughing which is definitely not kennel cough since he's gotten the vaccination.

All I can say is, I swapped out my shoes at the vehicle, and I'm digging out my ten year old sweaters. And I'm fearfully anticipating snow that actually sticks to the ground longer than a few hours.

Come Winter! I dare you to freeze me out! I dare you!
