I’m in Florida, so the cold weather we are experiencing pales in comparison to what our friends up north are going through. I am thinking of you all though, so today I’m offering six things to do while you’re stuck inside during the Polar Vortex:

1. Look up the meaning of vortex.
2. Play a drinking game. Whenever someone says “polar vortex” they have to take a shot of hot chocolate.
3. Read. Something by Robert Frost would be appropriate.
4. Watch movies, maybe something with a tropical theme or even The Polar Express might feel warmer than your current circumstances.
5. Text Ashton Kutcher.

I caught this on the news this morning.

Ashton, you’re killing me. You want us to be real with each other. You want connections. But your last line tells it all: You want to share your latest and greatest with us. Sounds a little one-way, if you ask me.

Anyway, Ashton, thanks for the chuckle. After I started writing this, I contemplated texting you, but I was afraid you’d text me back. So, I checked with Google and it looks like you have taken your number down or changed it or something equally non-communicative as far as your community goes. Silly boy.

FINALLY:

Number 6 – Get excited about my post for tomorrow’s blog. I’m doing a give-away.

On a serious note, I have family who are in Michigan, so I am praying that this dangerous cold weather passes through quickly and that people will be safe. Until tomorrow.
