You know it is cold outside when...
+ You turn on the car to warm it up, and try to back it out of the driveway, and it takes 20 seconds to make it out.
+ Your iPod doesn't work in the car.
+ The brand new (with brand new batteries) Baby Einstein toy doesn't work in the car either.
+ You've heard of 7-layer dip, but have you heard of 7-layer baby? ;)
+You can't convince the dog to venture outside to pee.
+ The weatherman says the high tomorrow won't break zero and that frostbite of exposed skin will occur in 3-5 minutes.
WHERE HAVE I LANDED?!!? DO I LIVE IN ANTARCTICA?! SERIOUSLY!!!

Some of our favorite measures:
-the seat in the car does not give when you sit on it
-(this one is earthy) your nose does not run because the mucus freezes
-the freshly recharged battery in your cell phone does not last more than 10 minutes
And people in Pittsburgh think that things are bad when the high is 15 degrees!

Growing up, we would throw hot water into the air when it got that cold. It either evaporates or becomes ice before it hits the ground!
Or, there is always the entertaining game of combing your hair with water and then stepping outside for a second and having it freeze solid.
Look at it this way Erin, it's cold now, but you are getting stories out of it that will make people look at you with awe for a lifetime.
