Okay...It's official...I'm a Wussy boy

It's cold out and I don't care if people can hear me complain. Yes, I grew up in Minnesota. I'm supposed to be used to it...I'm a Minnesotan. We are known as stoic folks, who don't get riled up when it's cold. WRONG... I'm the guy on the street corner waiting for the bus, jumping up and down, shaking, and whining. Somebody pack me up and ship me away to somewhere hot, where I can wear my shorts and flip flops.

My husband is from Minnesota too, and he whines about the cold here. But he also has a strange affection for "noddles and cheese". ;) You're not a wuss, you have a sense of self preservation. If it's cold and you don't care, I think there is definitely something amiss!

Wow--how crazy that we were both in Korea the same years. I lived in Jeonju. I taught from '96-'98 at a hagwon and from '98-'02 at Jeonbuk National University. Where were you?

And I'm with you on the cold. It's nasty in VT. I'm from here, but I'll never like it.
