When the cold strikes…

i’m forced to get real creative with things around here. like, say, using my full length mirrors to shoot my outfits. so, there’s that.
i’ve finally reached the point where i’m ready for winter to be over. like yesterday. Mike informed me a few days ago that he heard this is the coldest winter we’ve had in some 40 odd years, which i was actually pretty surprised by (note: that could be totally false — he overheard it in class and then told it to me like a real fact, so nobody could ever know). in my opinion, this winter hasn’t been that horrible, not taking into account a few days of Chiberia. i think i really prepared myself for how awful it would be before moving, so i was ‘ready’ for it. but now i’m sick of it and i’m ready to wear short-sleeves and anything but boots. know what i’m sayin’?

    My younger brother read the farmers almanac that this winter is supposed to be one of the coldest. I mentally prepared myself for it too and don't think it has been that bad, but when it is below 0 I'm not usually walking around outside – staying bundled up indoors! Now the rest of your Chicago winters will seem like a piece if cake, right? 🙂
