Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hmm.... There's like a hundred degrees difference between where you all are and here.

I was just thinking there's a 40 degree difference compared to where I am! And it's snowing here! That really is too cold to live.

Also, here is why I love the internet. Someone on the New York LJ community posted a picture of a fire to keep us mentally warm, and got snarked on in the comments for an errant apostrophe. [link]

It is about -1 or so here. Warm compared to other parts.

Ann, that's a ferret.

22F here. Not cold enough to complain, not warm enough to brag.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It's 18F here, 1F wind chill. I feel I can't really complain since I'm inside watching the beautiful snow glitter off the top of the Chrysler building with a cup of coffee in my hand. (Note: coffee not literally in hand while typing.)

Because books.

It's 7 here, north of Syracuse. Not sure about the wind chill, but I'm not going outside to check either.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

BBC News has a bit on Obama bringing in a new Camelot. The headline reads "Obama echoes JFK's Romance. I figure they mean the romance with the public, because I am trying to figure out how I think Michelle Obama might react if she found out her hub had a series of playboy-style extramarital affairs. I think the words "His Ass Handed to Him" figure prominently.

Now tagless for your comfort.

So far this morning, we've played with Moon Sand, glued random shapes onto construction paper and are now eating animal crackers & milk, Owens reading a book and Liv is watching Backyardigans.

It may warm up enough to venture out to the gym.
