I conceded to the weather
I finally lit the furnace.

It was a hec of a campaign. The Lady came at me from several directions. Blackberry brandy was an effective tool while it lasted. The victor played a little dirty, the last few days, by not getting above 25 degrees. She won by freezing my pipes.

I would still be in the contest if I would have thought to catch some water. The coffee was truly needed after a night of beer, brandy, and wine.

I plan to run again in 2009. :)

How is the weather where you are, and are you cozy warm at the moment?

:hi:

The pipes are flowing again. (in all the proper places, not under the house) :)

2. Cold as hell.
Probably around 40 right now. Got down into the mid twenties last night. Had to dig out the thick winter jacket today. Can't remember the last time I did that before Thanksgiving...

4. Hehe
I've been dressing like a homeless person just to spite the weather here... layers and layers and layers of shirts. It'll take me a few days to gather up all my clothes. I "peel and toss" in the car, at work, in other people's homes, on the porch, in the yard, etc.

:D
