#cold socks

I just had the best nap ever

All my toes are still attached, and they're not black or numb!

I can breathe through BOTH nostrils

My tissue sculpture is probably not ever going to be complete

Verdict: descantforhope saves the day! 

So here's the drill: 

Get cotton socks (aka get your super patient husband to go upstairs and bring you socks because you are busy being miserable)

Get wool socks (once he's back downstairs with your cotton socks that is. Stairs are good for you!)

Get the cotton socks wet with cold tap water. If you live in the desert, throw the wet socks in the freezer because tap water doesn't get colder than lukewarm.

Stuff your (pre-warmed!) feet into your terrifyingly cold socks. You will probably see your toes again.

Cold-socked feet go into dry wool socks.

Cover your feet with millions of blankets and fall asleep.

My feet are currently stuffed into freezing cold wet socks stuffed into wool socks covered in a few layers of blankets.

I think my ankles are frozen. I'm a little concerned that my toes are going to turn black and fall off.

This is all descantforhope's doing. I complained about being congested and she was like "I have the solution!" And so I'm trying it because dammit, I have sneezed at least 500 times today and I've already gone through a box of tissues at work, half a roll of toilet paper on the drive home, and am making a veritable tissue mountain here at home. 

Some people name their tumblrs after themselves. Some people name their tumblrs after their favourite things. 

I was looking at Tumblr, in the process of creating said tumblr, when it decided to ask me for such name.

My brain went through both of the options that many people find popular. He decided against it. My second best idea was to start throwing words around and putting them together until something good came up.

Lake by the Atlantic Ocean

Why?

Because it seemed like a satisfactory combination of words.

How many things are named just because they were a satisfactory combination of words?

P.S. I'll be tagging post that I've written or have some of my text as "Lake by the Atlantic Ocean". And the posts that I find especially interesting under "cold socks". Because cold socks just sounds like a great word.

COLD SOCKS.
