So it's -25 right now, -37 with wind chill.

The high today will be -21, but -38 with wind chill.

Layers, lots of them, are the order of the day... and my long coat.

Brrr.

Oh yeah, and? I'm sick again. The cold came back (insert footage of small yellow cartoon cat here). Bah.

Sitting in a nice hot bath with a giant Rusty Nail last night didn't help as much as it should have, but it was fun all the same.

That thing is just way too skewed towards gaming questions. The math was nice, though.

Lemming!

Post the meme, appear in the movie. That seems fair.

Electricland in How to Lose an Election in 10 Days

electricland (Carrie Fisher) has always hoped that it would never come to this. Filled with laugh-out-loud drama, her sway over the voting public is severely lacking, and fic_slayer, her attorney (Uma Thurman), is seeking vengeance for a prior error in judgement. elissa_carey (Calista Flockhart) organises an evil scheme. As it turns out, fic_slayer is a robot in disguise. The discovery is made when she bites into an apple.

But alas, I have no Carrie Fishericon...

Three years ago tomorrow at about 1 in the morning I walked into the Montreal General's ER with excruciating abdominal pain and with the start of a fever. I stayed overnight, went in to work, got scolded, went home, went back to hospital when the pain and fever got worse, then spent 2 days and nights on a gurney before they discharged enough people to get me a bed. That was the start of the fantastically awful year that was 2001 (which, frankly, sucked well before September 11th came along to put the capper on things).

Wow, am I glad that's over. Things are going MUCH better now.
