when footy pajamas aren't sufficient.

not only is it getting really cold outside, but it is freezing in our room as well.
for some reason, our heater is currently on the fritz... we walk around our room with layers and blankets on in order to stay warm. and mornings are the worst... the cold wakes me up. i even tried to wear my fleece footy pajamas last night, but i still managed to get cold!
my roommate has flannel sheets--something i ditched when my mother sent out a new set of sheets for me at the beginning of the year. let me just say that i am going to dig those flannel sheets up and get me some warmth!
even worse than having a cold room is having a cold room after getting out of the shower. the first 2 minutes after getting out of the shower are the most miserable two minutes of my day. but then everything is generally fine after that.
the cold outside is not a problem at all... as long as i've got a couple of layers, my scarf, and mittens, i am fine. i also have a pair of warm and fuzzy moccasins... these things are amazing! they were originally just slippers, but they are totally made for the outside too, so i have been wearing them to class lately. i highly recommend these--they are at target and are cheaper than buying a couple of boxes of hot cocoa, marshmallows, and a cute mug to contain it all. really. it is.
with the temperatures floating around the 20s and 30s, no snow has really come down and stuck lately. but there is definitely snow in the forecast leading up to thanksgiving.
speaking of thanksgiving... it's a three day week due to having thursday and friday off.
i am even more fortunate than that both of my monday professors are out of town tomorrow... meaning, no class!!! i know, pretty sweet. i get a three day weekend, and i don't have to deal with a case of the mondays.
nevertheless, i will still be doing large amounts of homework.
something i should do a little bit of now as well.

Have you guys thought of getting those electric blankets? Preheat your bed BEFORE you go to bed...then when you crawl in---toasty warm :)

Just a thought.
