Severe chest pains. Fuck smoking, I'm done with that shit.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

31° is practically bliss compared to yesterday.

It was so hot yesterday that our aircon died due to the electronics board shorting out. Repairman is coming this afternoon thankfully.

EDIT: Nooooooo! Aircon repairman came and has now left and the aircon STILL DOESN'T WORK! Apparently I guessed right and the electronics board has died and the replacement part is extremely expensive so the repairman has to confirm that the owner is willing to replace it. Which means the repairman has to contact the realtor who has to contact the owner and then the realtor has to let the repairman know he can go ahead and replace it.
It's unlikely to be fixed this week

And the next day is the day that Loki set up shop at the community pool with all her fifty gazbillion animals and Mass Effect posters. Or maybe rented a motel room for a while and charged it to the landlord.

Just send them all here... -30° today. Yes, that's NEGATIVE 30 degrees. Time froze about an hour ago and we're waiting for the air to thaw so we can resume breathing.

Still have the shitting and puking bug 3 days on. Bored of wasting my time off work being ill now. On the plus side it's a balmy 10*C here.

I used a hair dryer to thaw the icing on a window so I could look outside for a few minutes. Didn't see any polar bear cavalry yet, but it's only a matter of time.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

A leopard seal flotilla just cruised by here. They were wearing drysuits.
And toques.

You got to live in one forsaken place.. At least you can dry the laundry quick. Just stick the wet cloths out the window, wait some minutes and brush of the ice. Works like a charm.

Two days ago I was walking up the street fully attired (Coat, gloves, toque, scarf) and the cold that was nipping at the exposed portions of my face was so bad it prompted me to shout "Fuck you Jack Frost! Come at me bro!"

That mother fucker is going DOWN.

Seriously. It cold!

Polar Bear Cavalry is defo coming.

It was -7 Fahrenheit this morning. That's -22 Celsius for the non-Americans among us.

Yow. Or to futz with QuickTidal "Yowza and Beethoven is sporadically awesome."

I survived the Permian and all I got was this t-shirt.

Luckly NY is far south then. Can't understand how people stand the 25++ in the summers and the 15-- in the winters. It's just beyond me.

Crazy. Is it normally that cold where you are Amph, or is that an anomaly?

I'm sixish hours east of you in the Albany, NY region. So... it can be this cold, but it hasn't been regularly so for a while. Last winter, I didn't get to use my sweet winter boots which I'd bought to replace the decade plus old ones. This winter, I got to stomp around last week. We'll see if it happens again.

Have a court appearance on Wednesday.

What do I wear? I could dress the part of the college student, considering this guy is suing me for basically a whole year's tuition, room, and board. Or I could try to be presentable.
