I just can't warm up. Your argument makes sense though.Freethehumanbeingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00413434884108842434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-986819666451615261.post-50348242928311786022015-01-10T18:33:52.824-06:002015-01-10T18:33:52.824-06:00I work in the cold AND the heat.

I can add layers and layers and gear to protect myself against the cold, but I can't strip down to my undies when it's 95 degrees and 98 percent humidity. That would be unseemly. And highly offensive to the population in general. suzannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-986819666451615261.post-54038837748745092482015-01-10T12:34:54.536-06:002015-01-10T12:34:54.536-06:00H.B., that is inspiring.

I tried last winter, but ultimately winter beat my ass. Winter won, and I cried uncle. Maybe I should try that Vaseline trick. This idea of casually walking across the parking lot to my farthest parked car --- that is a new concept for me. Perhaps I will try it. I say this as I'm sitting in a sunny south window where the warmth of the sun has made me forget how bitter and debilitating an arctic chill can be. Yes, I am quite brave when it's warm. Seriously, I do like your approach and it encourages me. I would take my hat off to you, but, er, I need my hat.Freethehumanbeingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00413434884108842434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-986819666451615261.post-4634998978481194232015-01-10T09:36:07.531-06:002015-01-10T09:36:07.531-06:00I HATE COLD.
I would rather it be 100 degrees ever...I HATE COLD.<br />I would rather it be 100 degrees everyday, than 40 degrees for one day.<br />But, since I have no one to blame but myself for living in a frigid climate, I refuse to succumb. I wear deceivingly effective layers of Coldgear under my regular office attire, gloves under my mittens, tights under my trousers and a fine layer of Vasoline on my cheeks. I walk, casually, through the parking lot to my car, which is always parked in the farthest spot in the lot. I run miles in sub-zero temeratures...at night.<br />IN YOUR FACE, COLD!!<br />If cold thinks that it has little effect, has no fun, I'm hoping that it moves on. Back to Canada or Siberia or Norway or wherever it is supposed to be.<br />We must stick together on this...otherwise, the cold wins.H.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11204499380736059030noreply@blogger.com
