Fascinating.
Damn it, it's -46C right now, somewhere south of -50F. Of course that's including the extreme windchill warning, otherwise it's only a "cool" -28C...
Wtf is wrong with the weather?

I think my belly is coming back. I knew that a desk job would do this. I cheated this summer by cycling to work, but now I live 5 minutes walk away and it has suffered. Bleh ;-(.

yeah, i kinda like guys with a little belly. i wouldn't worry too much about it. 
Good news, my washing machine's fine.
Bad news, the pipes have frozen solid. Both hot and cold water. Hopefully, they haven't burst.

Today was a bit better then yesterday. The Puro guys that delivered my parts didn't even care enough for an ID, the exact opposite of the royal pain in the ass at the depot.

Yes, I've been languishing in no-internet-hell since July. My only access has been at work and at friends' houses. But no more! Woo!
Today sucked.
Purolator would not give me my Dell replacement parts because I could not produce a picture ID with my WORK ADDRESS on it. My fucking NAME is on the damn package. Puro's excuse is that Dell wants things done that way and it's a big customer.
Now I have to be in at work at 8am sharp to catch the redelivery of the...

Even better than I thought it would be. Everything's perfect. It's scary.

According to Environement Canada, it's -22 degrees Celcius out there, or -8F. Now with the windchill, it's -43.4C or -46.12F.
I believe this gives me license to whine, so here goes:
It's fucking cold here!
