Seriously. It's hilarious how all of New York City is like WTF???

Sometimes winter is a shock But in January, in this hemisphere, in a northern climes, I guess one should expect it.

Oh, god, I hate Keanu. Just remembered which one that was. I enjoyed Point Break but deleted it off the machine without a second though.

Point Break is best viewed with the sound off, at which point Teh Gay ratchets way way WAY the hell up, surpassing even some episodes of Smallville in HoYay.

shrift, i will fight you for Saracen, though when I lose, someone please give me a Coach Taylor of my very own.

I'd take Coach and Mrs. Coach, too.

I need opinions on this coat. Is this a look I could pull off?

I like it, Aurelia! Somebody clearly needs to wear that coat. It'd probably drag on the ground if I tried to wear it, so it can't be me.

I imagine it's just hard to get used to sudden-winter, in January. This past weekend, it was 70ish degrees in Boston. We'd had a dusting of snow right before the New Year that actually meant we had to clean the steps, and clean off the cars. We'd maybe had one mini-dusting (the put your windshield wipers on once, sort), but winter never really set in.

In one way, it is nice, and we haven't been freezing our tushies off, but it feels so wrong. The grass is still mostly green, like it is in early October. We haven't had to mow it, but...almost. I think the New Yorkers have had it even milder than we have. As much as winter can be a pain, I really don't like this winterless winter. It feels so off.

aurelia, that coat should be yours.

I was hoping we were heading toward winter yesterday when the temperature actually stayed below freezing for the day. But, noooo, I get up this morning and it's 36 degrees. They say snow on Sunday, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I haven't watched the forecast, but today's the first day it's felt to me like we might get some snow. The air has that particular bite.

I think Nicole has been bogarting all the snow.

edited to go off on a totally different track...

Has anyone else here watched The Knights of Prosperity?

What did you think?

If it gets any colder, I'll have to start using my winter coat. Please don't make me!

Computers are gaslighting me. First my mouse goes insane, then it doesn't, they swap it out for a new one, new one is insane too. Third mouse seems to behave. It may be the computer, it may be the mouse. A piece of software is ignoring emails, to the point where I can't even submit a support ticket because they use the same system.

Computers 1.5, sara bewildered.

I think Chuck Norris is trying to kick his way out of my sinuses, starting with my left cheekbone.

Chuck Norris does not try to kick his way out of your sinuses, startring with your left cheekbone. Chuck Norris succeeds in kicking his way out of your sinuses, starting with your left cheekbone.

If you still have a face, must not be Chuck. Maybe that Belgian guy?
