Mild Christmas weather...a pain in the ass

Heavy sigh. I don't live in fucking Atlanta...or even Richmond. I want it CHILLY. Like Arctic chilly. Highs in the 20s, lows in the teens. And some snow on the ground would be nice, yes. I'm not optimistic this year about a "true Xmas feel...with an expected high around 40 degrees. Guess it could be worse, though. Least it won't be RAINING. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to dodge strong and balmy southerly winds and a severe thunderstorm threat on my way to Target, where I'll try desperately to maintain my holiday patience and smile...
