My office building hasn't turned on the heat yet, and our office is particularly arctic. I'm wearing a sweater so suffocatingly warm that the last two times I brought it to work I had to change out of it, and I'm wearing a blanket on my legs but am still fucking freezing!
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The good thing about electric or hot air heat is that it comes on fast, so that you can go from freezing to toasty fast enough to hardly have time to complain how cold you are. The good thing about steam or forced hot water heat is that once you get it warm, it takes a long time for the radiators to cool down. As close to 'half a dozen of one, six of the other' you're going to get heating-wise.

It's wonderfully chilly here. Peter wore a fleece sleeper last night and is so cuddly!
Unrelatedly, there is a huge fly buzzing in my light fixture. Very annoying, and my office is a long way from any doors or windows. Stupid fly.
I am exceited about having a weekend.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We have wall units here that we can control the temperature on, but they're not all that effective. I think I might have to bring in a space heater for under my desk.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Thanks for the head's up, Mr. Scola! Happy Birthday to the CORRECT, smart, and very funny Megan.

Coding and Sleeping
My geekery continues. My open source program 'Giplet' is now in the Ubuntu repositories.
Also it appears Rep. Bob Ney has plead guilty to taking bribes from Abramoff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh thank goodness -- there's this stupid thing at work that I've been giving myself a ridiculous complex about (a combination of nobody told me they wanted that done, plus singing the praises of my predecessor), and I think I can get rid of the complex now -- I started doing it AND the big boss complimented me on it. Phew!! Now to make sure part 2 is done by the time she gets back in the office on Monday.

Oh crappity. The Baltimore marathon is tomorrow. Of COURSE it means road closures right when I'm trying to get to the train station at too early in the morning.
