It's been cold. Really cold. People are referring to the unfortunate weather we've been bearing in the Northeast as a "cold snap". I've never heard this term before, yet I've lived in New England my entire life. I love it when a certain word or phrase just explodes and you start seeing it everywhere. Eventually it will reach its Tipping Point and we will never refer to it again.

By the way, I know that it's extremely cold because my jacket is frozen.
