In an attempt to prepare me for Chicago, it's currently 40 degrees outside.

Of course, that's the low today in Atlanta, and the high in the Windy City. Methinks I'll pack a few sweaters.

Added: Why the fuck is "cold" an official LJ mood? It's not a mood? It's a physical sensation, dammit!

well, you can be cold to others too, that's a mood...

[yendi]

I suppose. I always thought it was more an attitude.

"Hot" is a mood too. I guess if you're one or the other, it's all you can think about.

Pack a coat, mittens and a muffler too. The wind will knock your socks off up there.

A muffler? Christ on a seatless bike -- I haven't owned one of those in ten years. I'll have to do some serious drawer-searching, as I may well have a ski mask or something around here.

"Hot" is a mood too.

So are "hungry," "thirsty," "drunk," "high," and "horny," none of which are really moods per se, though I suppose they can affect your moods.

A muffler is not absolutely required, unless you're planning on doing a lot of outdoor walking. A coat, a hat, and gloves or mittens are really, really necessary right now.

And actually, a muffler would be a good idea too. :^)

You live in the south a while and your blood gets thin. You'll love the cold up there, it'll make you appreciate what little cold we get that much more.

What little is right. I want to be able to count on snow.

I do realize that I haven't really been North during wintertime in ages. All of my trips in NYC over the last few years were in the summertime. My trips to Ottawa have been in the summer and fall (and the latter was unseasonably warm). I think the last time I really encountered cold was when I visited ariadnesthread in DC a few years back.

You can count on snow. You can count on it to happen in colorado. You can count on it to happen in vermont. You can count on it to happen a lot in North Dakota. And you can count on it to stay well enough away from Atlanta.

Which means you'll have to visit during the winter. Come on! Remember NYC snow? Gray, slushy, and annoying.

I don't think I'm really helping my point.

Brainnnnnnnnnnnnnnnns!

Well, there was always that brief batch of white snow in Central Park, at least. :-)

Come back to NYC for a visit Adam! We missed you! You need to meet Chris! PLEEEEEEEEAAASSSEEEEE!!!!!! You need to meet Malkav! You need to meet Jenny's husband and cat! You need to be an excuse to go to that crepes place again!

You need to come over to my house and play linked Diablo 2--well, now I'm being selfish...

Ahem. Bitchwhore. What am I? Chopped liver?

[yendi]

Read my post -- I was talking about the last time I visited DC in snow season, which was nearly two years before that time I hung out with you and Melissa (which was in June of that year, and not snowy). So who's the bitchwhore now?

[tanaise.livejournal.com]

I did read your post. I just didn't remember what the weather was when you were here. So I assumed it was snowy. :) I always assume it was snowy.

And, as always, the bitchwhore is Andrea.

Having actually been to the arctic circle I can assure anyone that cold can go way past sensation and attitude

Spoken like someone who is not living my love life. :) Enjoy Chicago...
