It's Winter in Minnesota

And that means........

• The squeegy at the gas station is frozen in the bucket of windshield cleaner
• The half cup of coffee you left in the car in the morning is a cup of black ice in the evening
• Your overcoat crackles as you walk outside
• You feel the cold through the soles of your shoes
• That unopened coke can in your car becomes a soda bomb sometime during the day
• The ice chunks on your wheel wells start looking nice
• All the cars are the same shade of road salt grey
• Wind chill factor is meaningless
• Snowblower envy
• You stroll to the mailbox in shirtsleeves if the temp warms up to the twenties
• Global warming seems to be taking way too long
• The stars are out at 5pm and 7pm seems way past bedtime.
• A "great" weekend is any time the temp is in the 30's. 
• Any flight you're on is to someplace warmer. 
• You love it
