Hey now, I admitted I'm cheering for them for the post season. It still feel WRONG, but you know my reasons.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I like my house about 77 and with that I sleep undercovers. I realize I am cold natured. Ice water runs through my veins.

My friend, P, keeps the house at 74 in winter, around 66 in summer. I always dress differently going there than I would at home. Because even with my air conditioning and my fireplace and heating, I let it get warmer in summer and cooler in winter.

Totally fascinating. It's probably 66 inside now and I am in warm-ish yoga pants (by which I mean not the super thin ones I have) and a ribbed tank. Totally comfy for me.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

New Natter! I am caught up for the first time in 7 months.

I like my house about 77 and with that I sleep undercovers.

77 in our house has DH and I sleeping downstairs in the basement without covers. In the winter the house is usually around 67-68, and the summer we keep the thermostat around 72. For the past week we've been able to keep the windows open and the house around 70. It's been quite nice.

I made baked gnocchi and cheese, like mac and cheese but gnocchi instead of macaroni. ohmygod good.

oh, that sounds amazing. Did you use frozen or cook them ahead of time?

65 is my ideal temperature. It is where my thermostat stays during the day in the winter (55 at night). It is where the thermostat would stay in the summer if my conscience did not insist on 75. (Not 80. 80 would turn by body into one big rash.)

Dana, I love that nail polish color. Pretty.

And speaking of loving nail polish, I'm realizing that the color on my toes is much prettier in this kind of grey, cloudy light than in bright sunlight. When I wore it in summer it looked more charcoal than purple, but today it was a soft plum with charcoal undertones.

It really does and that was my question as well. Unless it was the shelf-stable-y ones. Though I'd still wonder about pre-cooking. Mmmm, gnocchi and cheese baked all bubbly.

My ideal temp (daytime) is 66-74 depending on the season, I think. Definitely cooler at nights.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm okay up to about 80 and down to about 62. Part of that comes from having the low humidity, so the heat is not that problematic. And part of it comes from a lot of time in less than ideal conditions, so I've become acclimated to a broader definition of comfort.
