Snowed in

As most of you know the Midwest is currently covered in a rather large thick blanket of snow. The beauty of the blanket has been overcome by the negative forty degree windchill that is currently sweeping the lands.
This, besides making me cold, makes me want to lay in bed and dream of life in CA. Back to the days when I didn't have to put on leggings under my jeans just so I wouldn't freeze on my way out of the house, and the times when my cool when walking out of the house was to have several feet of exposed skin and not worried about having a centimeter showing and getting frost/wind burnt.
Unfortunetly staying in bed all day doesn't help the job search. In today's case neither does getting out of bed. I have sat in front of my computer for the last 4 hours and have paid a credit card bill. That's it. In 4 hours. Didn't reconnect with old friends, or send goofy emails, post pictures, nothing. Paid a bill and starred at Facebook waiting for people to change their statuses. I looked at my resumes but didn't do anything with them. Just looked at them and made sure they were still there.
I feel like a writer who is trying to write the next great American novel, as I sit and twirl my hair and contemplate what to eat/drink next and watch HGTV and think about where I could use speakers with photos on them.

Yesterday after not leaving the house for almost a week I was determined to go bowling with C (long story short we went shopping instead) and while in public I made a fool of myself many times over (not that odd) but many times in one outing was proof that I need to get out more often/interact with people who aren't my roommates or dogs.
I suppose I will apply to at least one job today.
