They have serious academic programs in my research. If it wasn't for the Meth, I'd consider going there for my doctorate.

It's in the 40's here.  Too cold for me.  :(  Some chick was wearing a mini skirt today.  With no tights or hose or anything.  Not even a pair of warm boots.  Meanwhile, I had two layered shirts, a hoodie, and a scarf.

Was she fat?  Because in Iowa, really fat people walk around outside in January with shorts and a t-shirt while I'm shaking like a Chihuahua.

To describe the weather here: It's fucking cold!  The kind of cold where you want to be home before sundown and not because mutant vampires will attack you.

I found it really funny that it was 35 near the Artic circle, but 18 in Chicago last week.

Her thighs were on the meaty side, but I wouldn't have called her fat.

I was wondering about when you were going to chime in with that info!

I kind of "hibernate" during winter. I hardly ever go out, i prefer to be in my nice warm bed

Is it unusual when I step outside and find 26 degrees to be "warm"? Maybe I'm turning Canadian.
