1. this cold shit sucks, I'm moving to Florida

2. Another Sarasotan?

Nice!

It's ridiculous here, and I just got back from the dog park.

I guess that makes me the ridiculous one, actually.

Will be wishing for this come July ;)

3. South County. I don't mind July so much - by Sept/Oct, I'm sick of the heat.

4. It's not the cold, it's the humidity

I knew I should have bought something long-sleeved the last time I went shopping.

Northern-types don't understand Floridians whining about temps they might find comfortable. It's because most of us don't own the clothing and heating systems to deal with this crap. And if you live in a Florida house from the fifties, with endless jalousies and terrazzo floors...yuck!

5. and no insulation in cinder-block walls.

I'm waiting take advantage of 'cash for caulkers' (I have a pretty good HVAC system and warm-enough clothes, but don't even own a regular pair of shoes - just sandals. I know what you northerners will say - cry me a river!
