On the drive in to work today the temperature was -30, -43 with windchill (that's -26, -46 with windchill in American). The (predicted) HIGH for today is -25. And, it's not even winter yet. Brrr. Fucking Brrr.

It's the last day of fall. We should enjoy the warm weather while we can.[g]

I'm clearly turning into a complete wuss. I was thinking about my childhood playing outside in -40 weather in Edmonton and Prince Albert as I huddled under the heater in the bus shelter on my way to work today. WAY TOO COLD!!!

Yack. OK, I retract my bitchiness about our 2 degree weather.

Damn, with temperatures like that, you should be able to call in 'too fricking cold to leave the house' to work.

Sorry to hear... try to stay warm.

(Now I understand the bit about engine warmers!)

Well, you can't exactly call in "too fricking cold", but you can call in "my car didn't start" and people will believe that.

ok ok

I have no basis to understand such temperatures, no matter what temperature units are being used. I have *never* experienced anything even close to that.

Not even in my youthful food-service-job days. Because...walk-in industrial freezers...are *WARMER* than that.

*shudder*
