not your mom's socks.

Coffee: on the upside, I get a Raq this weekend, with bonus HPF and Mal entertainment.

We leave the automatic thermostat set through the warm months, so I have plausible deniability when it kicks off in October. Like this morning. And the house smells like hot irons for a while.

Yup.

In Prague, most of the winter, we had to have the window open a crack to counteract the overzealous radiator. We had no control over it, it was city-wide.

One thing that annoys me about the new car: it's very naggy. Of COURSE the tire pressure is going to drop when the temp drops 20° in the space of a few days. Sure, it could use another couple of lbs per tire now. Light is sufficient, stop beeping at me!

Truly, we live in a Golden Age.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm hoping to open windows this weekend, finally. Last night when I drove home at 10:30pm it was still 79F, but it was very windy and very comfy. I hate being closed in all summer and can't wait to start living outside again. Lots of my friends got snow yesterday. The pictures were very pretty.

My friends in Tucson say that it's in the summer that you spend the most time indoors because it's so hot -- like winter in the northern climes.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I will admit to being a wuss when it comes to the cold. Heat has been on here the last couple of weeks.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Huh, the socks I thought were Halloween socks (black with pumpkins) are actually Thanksgiving socks (pumpkins and cornucopia!). Oh, well, already on my feet.

I still haven't seen about getting my furnace fixed, so my heat isn't on.
