I might be in love ...

Yup! I got mine online at JCPenney. It's exactly like a heating pad for your mattress but it covers the entire thing. I was leery about purchasing one because it plugs up. But it's very nice. It has a 10 hour timer so I don't have to worry about turning it off when I leave for work. I'll throw you a link so you won't have to waste time looking for it.

Wow - I just asked my OH and he didn't know these existed either! Here I thought I was being clever with my old heating pad.

Thanks for the link! I never thought I'd read God and JCPenney in the same sentence!

That reminds me of how f***ing cold it was last year. Here in Kansas City we had temperatures in the single digits barely climbing into the teens. It was like negative freeze your ass off weather last January. I remember it took me close to two hours to get the ice off my windshield. My doors were frozen shut. It was like my car was preserved in a friggin' iceberg. This winter I'll remember putting a towel on my windshield when I hear of an ice storm approaching.
