It's cold out

People keep posting about how it's cold out. Yep. Factoring in wind chill, it's somewhere around -41 Celsius out there. Don't know what that is in Fahrenheit. Don't much care, either. :)

I don't feel much like moving, today. I feel like curling up here in my apartment with my cats and a very large cup of tea and my Dire Straights album. I actually have work to do, but I have decided to work on it over the weekend, for once.

It's nearly four o'clock, and given that I have a game at 6:00, I should probably be looking for my notes and character sheet and dice, but have I mentioned that I don't feel like moving?

I don't think I'm actually depressed or anything. I like the cold, but my apartment is *really* cold thanks to the whole thermostat/window situation, and so I've gone kind of numb. Maybe I should go make that tea...

Oh, no -- I completely understand about cats' proclivity for shredding! And general havoc. One of my cats' current favorite game is knocking thing off of our kitchen buffet (car keys, salt and pepper shakers, mail ... pretty much anything we put there). We like to think she's "testing gravity."

We had a hole in our livingroom floor at our last apartment (long story; in short: not our fault, rotting floorboards, absentee landlord) and towels did just fine to keep the draught away. They weren't ideal, of course, but they do work in a pinch! Good creative thinking, [livejournal.com profile] mousme :)

With my apartment, I have to be creative. ;P
