Baby, It's Cold Outside
Posted November 4, 2009
It seems like just yesterday we were offering instructions on how to make a gigantor homemade slip n' slide, so how is it that the weather is suddenly hovering near freezing (in some parts of the world at least)? Say it with me now: Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! In between blowing on our hands and daring our friends to stick their tongues to a lamppost, we've come up with a few tips for keeping warm as the weather goes cold.
- Don a Snuggie (or better yet, a "designer" Snuggie).
- Carry around a blow dryer to blast yourself periodically with warm air. (The only crimp in this plan: finding electrical outlets...)
- Eat only soup heated to 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius).
- Wear Yeti boots (the new alternative to Ugglies).
- Don't stop moving. Ever.
- Drink rocket fuel.
- Wear this hat (the new alternative to wool caps).
- Institute a snuggling policy with your family and friends.
- Never leave your hot shower (downside: pruning, getting yelled at by your parents for insane water bills).
- Knit yourself a wool body suit.
- Take a tumble in the dryer. (Just kidding. Don't do this.)
- Ask your parents to take out a loan so they can turn the thermostat up two degrees.
- Block drafts under doors with a towel. This also works with a cat or your little brother.
- Become an astronaut. (Those suits look warm!)
- Layer fifteen sweaters.
- Move to Equatorial Guinea.
How are you keeping warm as the seasons change?
