HELLA cold...

Ok, I know that I sound like I'm whining. And I am.

It is HELLA cold here. It is 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius. I came out from work tonight and there was frost on my windshield. Not fog, FROST. We don't get cold weather like this in the Bay Area. I have never seen it snow here and I cannot ever remember seeing frost on my windshield. Thankfully, it was nothing that required an ice scraper. When I bought the new car this year, I did not equip it with any winter car equipment because I was not intending on needing any. Damn you global warming, damn you!

I am perfectly aware that anyone who is not living in California right now likely has temperatures well below what we have. If you have not been in temperatures like this for years and years though (like me), it throws you a bit. I have a winter coat, but I have not worn it since I lived in New Jersey. Before that, I was in college! I am certainly not alone in feeling it is cold here. Cities around northern California have opened up warming centers where people can spend the night if they are too cold or do not have heat. I was not kidding people, Californians take their freezing temperatures seriously.

All I have to say is, come back warm weather, come back. We miss you.

Cuidate.
