It’s Really Cold Out

Another freezing cold day here in Massachusetts. New England is in a deep freeze right now. At this moment I am sitting at my desk in the cellar with a heavy sweatshirt on, a space heater running, and an electric blanket draped over me.

Yeah, it’s cold.

I just want the air to be warm enough to let us go outside without it being painful. Is that too much to ask?

Two More Days

We are down to the holiday wire and, somehow, I wrapped the final present this morning. We had a few things delivered yesterday and today before work I took them to my wrapping station in the cellar and cranked them out.

The Wrapping Is Complete.

I still need to go out and pick up one or two little things that are fun but not required. I will do that either tonight after work or tomorrow. I am off work tomorrow. Actually, I am off work until Friday. I was going to work in the office today but I am still sick so in order to not screw up anyone else’s holiday I stayed home. I am well enough to work, but not well enough to be in public guilt free. If I do go out at some point tonight I will wear a mask.

One more work day to go and then I am off for xmas eve, xmas, and Boxing Day… even though the US doesn’t celebrate Boxing Day. Whatevs, right? HoHoHo.

Cold

I checked the weather when I woke up. It was about 6:30am. The outside temperature was a whopping nine degrees Fahrenheit. Lovely.

I went down cellar to start my day with a bottle of water and some morning exercise and the little room thermometer I keep down here said it was 58.7 degrees. Lovely.

Winter sucks. Winter blows.

Random Saturday Thoughts

The Bruins are finally back home after a tough road trip. They have a 1-0 lead over Buffalo late in the first period but the Sabers are going on the power play. We’ll see how it goes. I’m listening to the game on the radio. I am using the NHL app on my iPhone and I am running the app using the iPhone Mirroring app on my MacBook. Ain’t technology cool?

I was going to write something else… what was that… I don’t recall…

Oh yeah, xmas is four days away and I am starting to feel sick.

Figures. HoHoFuckingHo.
