Cold Weather

The absolute worst thing about Minnesota is the bitter cold winters, and especially here, it always seems to be ridiculously windy. I tend to not leave my room nearly as much as I would if it had been nice and warm outside. I usually gain a few pounds during a very long cold stretch, just because it is terrible to try and walk over to the gym, and then try to come back while still sweaty and turn into a popsicle. I also hate the cold, because my car will NEVER start if it is below 10 degrees, so wherever I am, I'm pretty much stuck there. Normally, the cold doesn't bother me a whole ton, but if its below 20, it just puts me in a worse mood, because then the sun is hardly ever out either, and it seems like the whole world is grey. And lastly, I've always found it ironic that whenever it seems to be insanely cold outside, all talk about global warming goes away, because I swear it keeps getting colder every single winter.
