Ironically, we're above freezing. We were 12C (about 54F) when I went to bed. But it's not expecting to last long.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
We were at a balmy 11 when I woke up.

We were still at -12 this morning, now up to a balmy -8.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
If I tell you all the temperature here it will sound like I'm taunting, so I won't. But we do have wildfires in Humboldt County, which is ridiculous in January.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Sorry for the cat news, Fred.
I couldn't get my car out and my train was late but at least I made it to work. It's -4 now but it's gonna get up to 5 today! It's 59 in the office but I have warm clothes and a space-heater.
Friday they're predicting rain, and it'll be above freezing for a few days.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
My mud room was 40 degrees - there was frost around the window and the door. I need to get laundry going and rerun the dishwasher to keep the water moving so the pipes don't freeze. I might make the girl take a nice, warm shower.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Thanks for the thoughts.
DC was down to 5 this morning. It's up to 12 with a wind chill of -3. In other words, standard DC -- on the edge of things. Bad enough to be bad, but hard to complain because so many people have it so much worse.

That's definitely bad enough to complain.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Fred, I'm so sorry.
It's 8 here right now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It is officially Too Damn Cold for Georgia
This is what I was talking about with my coworker this morning -- it's too cold, too far south, and people are not prepared. I mean, it's plenty cold here, but we can deal with it. Our houses are insulated, we own warm coats, there are enough shelters and etc. (Not that there aren't still people outside, but theoretically they could be inside someplace.)
