Happy New Year
Oh Nathan
We sit with a high over us, the inversion stuck in the valley and too warm temps. We’d take a little of the snow (although not the bitter cold). Hope you can get the car working without being out in that bitterness!
Chris- I can not believe how freakin’ cold it is.
It must be, or a Canadian and a Minnesotan wouldn’t be commenting on it.
Happy New Year! I hope you have a wonderful 2014!
OMG I can’t believe the forecast in your area! Monday is -15???? That’s insane! I’m such a wimp…I freak out when it’s 35 here.
Those Bad Sex Awards were fitting. My heavens were those bad!
I want a book fort! 🙂
Hope you’re well.

Happy New Year!
I did the dialect quiz that kmkat linked and apparently I talk like I’m from Honolulu, Milwaukee or Madison. Hehe, I’m Scottish. 🙂
Sorry bout your ride! It’s about 10 degrees “warmer” here–that’s still too cold, especially for the bus!
Sitting by the radiator, bundled up. Will I go to work tomorrow? Will the 14 year old car protest? Another cozy time waster with linkity. Never wasted. Happy to see that some of the ads I loathed and found creepy were listed. And Little Maddie? Sending that hybrid out right now.
I’ve been following the Chris Klewe story for a while now and even read his book this fall. I really hope the Vikings pay in some way for letting him go (because it sure seems like he was fired for his views, not his ability), and that he’s able to play again for another team next season. Stay warm!
I had to get the online conversion tool fired up but OMG! Your high today is 26 degrees Celsius below where water freezes! Just… Does anyone go to work in those temperatures? I would just stay in bed. I won’t be mean and tell you how warm it is here ATM…
And it don’t matter if there aren’t any contests, I’ll still be de-lurking 🙂
I love that centre pull ball link 🙂
