brrr.

it's freezing. the last three days have been too cold for the pool to open, and today it only hit 56 degrees. i feel like a slacker that i haven't worked in so long, but it's been raining too, and i can't complain getting to see dad more than usual for this time of the year. the house tonight was so cold that we had a fire, and now it smells like christmas. i think i'm going to sleep in front of the hearth tonight like a cat. nothing like falling asleep to the crackles of flames. ahh... the warmth calls to me.
