my fingers are so cold, my nails turned blue
if I would have to write something by hand right now nobody could read it, because my fingers are so stiff.

1. run them under cool water and they'll warm up quick!
hot water hurts and it takes too long anyway, it's an old trick my grandma taught me, works great! As long as the water is just slightly warmer than your icicle fingers, it'll feel great.

3. file it for next time, when the tea isn't available.
I have great memories of coming inside from the cold as a kid, freezing my fingers off, and grandma standing behind me at the sink, holding me up to run them under the water. :-) grandma's rock.
