Put on cleats so you can plant a kiss on your sweetheart's forehead in the heart of winter — that's love. You'll be braving the harsh winter elements for love, so you put on your cleats to get a better grip on the snow. Sure, you could just wait for better weather to go see them, but then it wouldn't be true love, would it?
