It’s an uncharacteristically cold and snowy winter this year. Since Atlanta is a city that loves to shut down at the first sign of a snowflake, that means there will be plenty of opportunities to be trapped inside for a snow day. Hopefully, you’ve got someone special to be trapped inside with. Here’s a list of essentials to help you and that special someone make it through being snowed in together.
- Condoms and Lube
The snow outside shouldn’t be the only thing getting plowed during a snowstorm. When trapped in bed all day, might as well have plenty of sex. Make sure you’re stocked up on condoms and lube since these snow days happen unexpectedly.
- Food and drinks
Don’t want to be trapped home hungry or thirsty. So make sure, if you know snow is in the forecast, well, even in general, always have something to eat and drink in the house. Plus you can turn being snowed in with your partner into a time to try cooking a new recipe. Make a romantic night of being trapped together.
- Streaming Services
Whether it’s Netflix, HBO Now, Hulu, Amazon Prime, YouTube Red, or whatever. Make sure you’ve got some streaming service on hand. Being trapped inside all day due to inclement weather is the perfect time to cuddle up, binge-watch a new show, or watch a movie you’ve had in your queue for months. Streaming services give plenty of variety so you and your special someone can take turns picking what you guys watch.
- Alcohol
Alcohol should always be in stock at home, especially during a blizzard. Alcohol helps keep you warm. Alcohol makes you horny. Alcohol helps you fall asleep when that special someone you’re snowed in with starts getting on your nerves.
- Winter Accessories
Make sure there’s coats, gloves, scarves, and snow boots for two. After enough time stuck in the house, you may want to venture out. Go for a romantic snowy walk together. Have a snowball fight. Build a snowman together. Make some snow angels. Just as much fun can be had outside together as inside.
