It is really really really really really really cold.

pointoforigin's idea in her post, here.
An applicant to our graduate program just came by my office to thank me for the help I gave her in pulling her application packet together by the December 31 deadline. She gave me a thank-you note, and...a box of chocolates. Pfffff. I think I'll take them tobestill's journal workshop this weekend.
Have to say, I'm not impressed with Best of Bootie 2008. I don't know if the bloom is off the rose, or if they're running out of good songs to mash, but the majority of the collection is just sorta eh. The good songs on it are about equal to the eh songs on the first couple.
This morning I didn't exercise because my shoulders hurt down to the bone. They started to feel a little tender yesterday, but this morning I couldn't move them without pain. It isn't the usual delayed onset muscle soreness. This really does ache all the way to the joint. It feels like I slept, cramped and curled up, on a hard floor. But only in my shoulders. It was mentioned that's probably indicative of my tendons getting stronger along with the muscles there (my shoulders have always been fairly weak). So that is awesome. But ow.

I am almost grateful for this extra insulation on my body during this cold weather... I will be back to kicking my own ass next week!

It's supposed to be -30 here tomorrow, factoring windchill. And I have to go into the office.
Needless to say, that's cold enough that even Canadians start whining.
