Kicking the Winter Blues

On the first snow day here's what you should do....

• Sleep-in and don't get dressed. Stay in your pajamas all day.
• Make pecan and chocolate chip pancakes.
• Watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians on netflix until you are completely brainwashed and think that the Kardashian sisters are actually good people.
• Since you are brainwashed, start watching Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami. Tell Micah how the Kardashian sisters are actually pretty smart business people. Watch Micah roll his eyes at you.
• Don't bother going outside, it's too cold and you might slip and fall on the ice.
• Find as many people as you can to play Words With Friends on the iPhone. Try to win all games.

On day 2 of snow day here's what you should do to combat cabin fever:

• Sleep in, maybe the day will go by faster.
• Open the blinds to let some light in, so you don't fall into a depression.
• Take a shower and put on some make-up. The bags under my eyes was scaring my puppy.
• Check the The Weather Channel app every half hour, to determine the warmest hour that a 6 mile run could happen.  No hour is warm enough, a steady 19 degrees today!
• Work-out on the Wii Fit since you can't go running in 19 degree weather, and you'll fall on the icy sidewalks.
• Keep your day scheduled with 3 meals, instead of snacking all day long. You aren't hungry, just bored. Hide your various stashes of chocolate.
• Clean out closets.
• Clean your colon by drinking 3 cups of coffee.
• Check your e-mail, Twitter, and Facebook at least every 15 minutes.
• Consider scrapbooking, but its too big of a mess to get out since you'll be returning to work tomorrow.
• Contemplate how happy you aren't at work with rolling black-outs and crying 3 and 4-year-olds.
• Put on real shoes for the first time in 2 days, and take pictures of the ice. Watch Barley get frisky in the snow.
