That's a lot, Suzi. You're a better woman than I. Time for sleeps, now?
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
It got down to the 30s last night, so I turned on the heat. I wish I had a fireplace--this is perfect weather for one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh! I have a fireplace! It's currently blocked off, because my grandmother thought it was too drafty. So I'm kind of afraid to take off the covering, in case it IS too drafty. I guess I could always put it back.

Oh, they can totally be drafty. I guess what I want is a fireplace like the one I grew up with, that Dad adjusted with fans and whatnot so the cold air stayed out and the warm air (sans smoke) mostly came into the living room.

60 upstairs, windy as shit outside and not going to get out of the forties. My sinuses hate me.
So I too, just turned on the heat.

I've had the heat on for weeks here -- I hate being cold! But I do regret forgetting to turn it down when I went to bed last night.

Punishingly Intricate
Turned on the heat for the first time and sort of figured out how to turn on the new heated floor in the bathroom.

Until this morning, my house never got below 63 and that was doable. I could probably have dealt with the 60, but for the wind gusts sneaking little cold fingers in. I think it is 50% mind game. And my sinuses hurt and I have to do work outside.

Oooh, if my bathroom floor was independently heated, I might've lasted longer.
That was the other thing: toilet seat was a little bit of a shock. (Bathroom is one of the draftier rooms due to skylight & vent.)

Below 66 inside, I can't deal.
