ha, well actually, I've been here for 6 years and before that, chicago, so I'm used to cold and random weather, but I seriously just couldn't remember how long the coldest of winter goes for! I was in chicago for the holidays and realized it hadn't gotten nearly that cold in ny all winter. to me it seems like temps have been not so bad at all in ny. I'm just hoping it will stay that way--not that it will be spring in Feb!
