Makes me wanna move to Alaska. Juneau, mind you, where it is above freezing, not Fairbanks.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Apparently, just before I walked in, they set off *some* of the fire alarms accidentally.
I'm glad I missed it. May be losing internet shortly due to other work. Bleh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Temp: -15˚F (-26˚C)
Yikes!!
My current annoyance is that I guess I ruined the battery of my cell phone. Last month, I let it die completely when I was out of town, and since then, it loses the charge really fast and suddenly. Like, last night it showed most of the charge there, but this morning it was dead. Annoying!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
-6 in Chicago, with a windchill of -20 or so.
I couldn't find my second scarf, which I wanted to cover my face with. And I probably should have worn long underwear, and a better hat and gloves. So being outside for 10 minutes at a time is fine, but I could tell I was gradually getting colder. Ideally I try to dress so I can stay outside indefinitely, but not today.

Yeah, my inner 6-year-old was all, "Don't wanna go to work today."

Thank you, Andi, you made my morning. And I can say that we have warmed up 2 degrees to -8.
Woo and hoo.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Andi, I feel your pain. It's so cold it hurts my skin to go outside. And I have to take the kids to school in this.
