Long underwear is yer friend, my friend. It's such a great feeling to be comfortable in the bitter cold.

I say bundle up and get out there! Do the layers thing, wear a warm hat, two pairs of socks, gloves.

I say bundle up and ride out to the beach. . .walk along the sand for awhile. . .the air will feel good (albeit cold) and you will feel recharged.

I also cut the sole of my foot on a stray piece of broken glass in the living room the other day and it's still kind of tender, so roaming around should wait at least a few days, probably. Plus, I have to conserve money while waiting for unemployment to get straightened out.

danf: I'm in Queens, the nearest beach is Rockaway, and today's not a good day to hitch a ride.

It's is very cold indeed in NY. I walk to work in the morning and I felt that my face would come off. But at night I sleep with the window half open, go figure.

Yes, definitely hat and gloves. Do not even think about it. Stay on the sunny side of the street, too.

Don't go outside, you will freeze your fucking face off.

Besides, with all this free time, I've been very prolific. The coutdown blog is only 5 songs away from #200, so that's an accomplishment of sorts, right?

We could getcha a hampster wheel. You know, for exercise. ; )

I second Wino's opinion. Winos know from cold. If ya get your license renewed, though, you can go for a drive...

The problem with the kind of cold it is outside is not solved by long undergrundies, because it's the kind of cold where your exposed skin is in pain. I go out and walk down the street and my trunk and limbs are perfectly fine and my poor fucking weatherbeaten face is being flayed by tiny little razors.

I've made a proud decision to talk about the weather in detail instead of thinking that talking about the weather is stupid. It's a sign of adulthood, like the fact that my organs hurt randomly and my intense urge to horsewhip teenagers.

Great idea, pips. I'll get a head start part by peeing in the woodshavings on the floor.

jon wouldn't wear underlayers anyway, cuz they don't make long Ramones Underoos (but goddamn, they should).

I dig the people sighting reports you give, jonmc. Totally.

Put on a bib, get dressed you whuss. Get Outside.
This time take the digital camera and give us the scoop on what goes on Outside. Fuck the TV, nothing on it anyways.

you asked.
