Cold
Cold
Feeling no warmth; uncomfortably chilled.
Cold is a relative term. I remember going to Miami for a Christmas vacation when I was 14 years old. My brother and I could not get enough of the beaches or the pool, and as we lounged in the hot tub in the evenings the security guards would come and visit, in their winter coats, mittens and scarves. They found it insane that we would walk around barefoot and in bathing suits as we thought they must be crazy to be dressed as though there was an expected snowstorm in the forecast.
Today is cold. It is definitely a slippers and hoodies kind of day. Although, we still have the windows cracked open... My dad called last night just after he had made a fire in the basement. The snow is still falling and the streets are covered in ice. So, even though its "cold" over here, I'm willing to take it rather than the "cold" back home... although, the Miami "cold" is more than welcome to join us.
