but, really that is all that I have! I mean come on, no malls or other noteworthy stores, one theater (that is totally overpriced, so we go rarely), no good chain restaurants, and no friends. So really, all we have to break the monotony is the weather. And boy is it crazy.
Today, our high was -6, with a windchill of cold as shit. There was an advisory today for "blowing snow" - I had no idea what that meant. Now I do. Apparently, since this is such a flat, barren landscape, there is nothing to break the wind when it blows. And boy does it blow! Since there is so much snow on the ground and the wind is so strong, the visibility was like, 0, and then the snow was sticking and immediately freezing on the finally almost back to normal roads. What a mess!!
Tonight they are calling for much the same, with a few flurries. But tomorrow afternoon to evening, another snow advisory! They are calling for another 4-8 inches!! Can you believe it? I have never seen anything like this in my life! We may even get to squeak another snow day out of this...
Everyone keeps saying this is the worst winter they have had in years. Is it just our bad luck? I am telling you, my southern blood can barely take this cold! But I do love the snow!!

Too bad to hear about your below zero frigid temps. Here in the south, it's downright balmy! Sunny, beautiful and perfect golf weather---as your dad can attest. Lest you think I'm acting a bit too smug, I'm sure I'll "get mine" when I get to Kalamazoo on Tuesday!!
not gonna lie... that weather sounds really unfortunate. Of course I have neither heat nor AC nor hot water right now, so no matter what the temp outside here is, it's uncomfortable and unfortunate inside. Glad to hear that y'all are doing well in Wisconsin though... give me a call soon! love you!
I would be surprised if you weren't weather-obsessed. It must feel like you're in a different country after your fair-weather life!
