FU, You godforsaken state.Follow

I can't complain, really. I'm happily married, my homelife is bliss, my child is a saint and a genius, my *** is amazing, my hair is bouncy and full, and my job is steady and pays well.

The thing is, it's colder than morally permissible.

I am actually considering a THIRD LAYER OF LONGJOHNS. This isn't the life I want to live!!! This isn't sexy!
I am about to set fire to Joph's side of the bed not only to keep warm, but to make a personal statement.

And here I am complaining at 45 degrees.

Don't you folks have a furnace? Or a fireplace? Or bourbon?

It got down to twenty here last night. I was getting the dogs water this morning, and their buckets had frozen into solid blocks. Needless to say, I spent part of my day making a rather amateurish igloo.

I'm jealous. I want to make an igloo. It's one of the things I plan to do when we go to Alaska.

We used to huddle around my old CRT monitor for warmth but then I got a LCD screen so we're fucked.

About 10 miles out of the city.

It's been about -4 HIGH temperature past week here. Still sweatshirt temps.

Took me almost 2 hours to drive back from De Kalb today. Most of that time was spent twiddling my thumbs on Ogden.

Not only was I raised in "La Cuidad de la Eterna Primavera" (City of Eternal Spring), but honestly it's getting to be goddamn depressing. My mom sent me a mini-stepper and I'll do that next to my space heater in my room now, because I can't stand being anywhere in the house that doesn't have a space heater and before I would just get into bed to stay warm and end up falling asleep at 9pm.

Now I can stay up to at least 10:30.

Oh and Barkingturtle, it's 20 below with wind chill here, you puss. 20 degrees is short-sleeve weather to me now.

I sure as hell don't miss that weather.

"Arnold"? Kidnapped nothing. I plan to take up arms and join my Socialist brothers for the glory of La Revolución.

/double sigh

Kao, can you fix this? All I want is to press the stupid button, insert the URL in the little box, and put it on the page. I shouldn't need a flippin' programming degree to figure this out. Overly complicated for my old brain.
