I mean god...I moved here about three months ago and don't get me wrong, I absoloutly love it and the friends I've met are incredible...But the other night I was planning on going out to a late movie with one those said new friends (A central Florida native who's name shall go unmentioned) and so I call her up and ask her if anything caught her attention and she responds with this:"Well, I actually was about to call you about that...I'm thinkin' we should just just go thursday (a day we both have off) in the daytime, It's so cold I don't wanna leave the house" it was 41 degrees...I said "Are you fucking kidding me?!?" "It's FORTY ONE friggin' degrees!...That's t-shirt and shorts weather where I come from!" and she goes "Well that's fucking freezing where I come from!"...We laughed about it but I was actually sort of pissed...Considering she's a good friend (for the length of time I've known her) I let it it slide...But all the Floridians I've met so far, no offence, are fucking weather pansies...But hey, if it's 72 and sunny every day of your life could you blame them?

Does she wear those stupid fur boots?
And yes, it was cold...I wore a long sleeve shirt and a jacket... I didn't wear a scarf, 5 shirts/jackets, and all the other crap I saw people wearing... I saw people with two heavy jackets!
College/University is great because you can tell who the Floridians are and who everyone else is for the most part.
and I would prefer 66...one 6 off and mom and grandma are freezing while I'm in shorts... ;D

The best part about it is when they give you funny looks for not being bundled up. Also, that they can tolerate the smell of sulphur water. Awful.

Floridians have it so easy. Nice weather, fresh orange juice, the freedom to be splashed by Shamu's pissy water whenever they want. I'm jealous.

Sunday I was doing shopping with mom for groceries and w/e and we bought hot chocolate at Whole Foods... she went into PetsMart and gave me hers, before she walks out some guy in two heavy coats looks at me and says "you have two, you must be cold!" He was kidding, but it was hilarious.

Hey, now. If you were here freezing your bottom off right now, you'd probably think differently. It just snowed in Orlando. Us Floridians don't have it as great as people like to think. And this is coming from an NY native.

While its not snowing in South Carolina, its still hella cold. I mean, if the weathers going to be this unfortunate anyways couldn't mother nature at least hook me up with some snowballs to throw at people?

And this is coming from an NY native. Of course not. You have to deal with tourists. Not to mention you live close enough to Daytona to have the Nascar fans and Bikers head that way after their get-togethers.

So yeah, I guess you caught me. I do have it pretty good. But still...

You do have to deal with gross people on the beach that wear way less than they should. Especially the women that don't understand getting their bathing suits in their size. If they're out of shape and wearing a bikini at least wear one that doesn't cut into their flesh.

To look like that would be lazy and irresponsible. Especially when there's a plastic surgeon on every block. The three of us should join a biker gang. Can I wear the chaps? I was searching for cute motorcycles, and I found this monstrosity: lol, it even has training wheels.

I love that the seat has both fur and an animal print.

The fur was a very thoughtful touch, especially if I'm going to be wearing chaps.

Personally, I find that the handlebar streamers add a touch of class.

I don't know though, I think we should lose the strawberry rims. No one is going to take us seriously with those.

It could really use a basket, though.

I'll run the trash out barefoot in the snow. Of course, it's actually running then and usually I'm not aware of the snow prior to stepping out. I just can't be bothered to find shoes by that time.
