You Know it's Cold When...

• You wake up wearing long sleeves and pajama pants, and the covers are still pulled up to your chin
• You tiptoe from the bedroom to the bathroom, not because you're trying to be quiet, but to limit the amount of bare skin touching the cold, hardwood floors
• You get dressed in the bathroom after showering because it's the only warm place in the apartment, even with the heat on
• You wear long john's under your scrubs, just so you can survive the eight minute walk to the subway station
• You wear the dorky Christmas socks with reindeer on them because you know they are thick enough to keep your feet warm
• The eight minute walk to the subway station becomes a five minute walk
• During the walk to the subway station, you may throw yourself in front of oncoming vehicles just to get there faster
• Also during the walk, you do not under any circumstances take your hands out of your pockets (even though you have gloves on), at risk of losing a digit
• You almost run an old couple off the sidewalk because they are walking way too slow
• You wear your ski jacket with the hood up, even though you already have a hat on, and you know you can't really see the oncoming traffic because you have no peripheral vision
• You don't care if you look like a crazy, fast-walking eskimo
• You keep your hat, gloves, and scarf on during the entire 25 minute ride to work, when you would normally take them off
• It's been 10 hours since you've been outside, and your hands are still cold
• For once, you are actually dreading leaving work in the morning
