Turn the Polar Vortex into a Polar Plunge

I Feel Like a Polar Bear. Everywhere I walk is icy. I'm afraid I'm going to slip and fall in some snow. I'm eating like I'm preparing to hibernate and I'm super pasty pale. All signs point to polar bear-dom.

You might be feeling polar-y too, there are a few things we can do about it.

1. Continue eating half a pie as you sit under a blanket on your couch every night until it's 50 degrees out. Probably not a good idea unless you want to have to buy new pants.
2. Remind yourself that baby polar bears are adorable, and hope that you look as cute as this little guy from the Toronto Zoo when you're walking to your car after work:
3. Make a last minute decision to show the cold who's boss at this weekend's 2014 Polar Plunge Rockford. It'll be cold, but you get a sweatshirt and there's a Post-Plunge-Party.

Let me know what you decide while I finish this piece of pie... even though I don't really like pie. #PolarProblems Happy Polar Bear Day!
