It's absolutely freezing. This morning, before I got up I had to turn on my heater full blast and wait for my room to thaw out before even beginning to get out of bed. I nearly froze solid on my way to my steaming hot shower, and then once I'd used up all the hot water (hard to do in an apartment building), I thought I'd snap in two under the effects of the cold.

Remind me why 1) I want to move further north, 2) what is keeping me from selling seashells on the equator...
