I dunno, it's getting colder here.

I went on a two hour walk around Spitalfields today (fascinating - Hugenots, the silk trade, prostitutes, Jack the Ripper - and we saw Tracey Emin's house and Gilbert & George's house) and I was cold by the end. The guide asked at the beginning if I was sure I'd be okay - wearing a jumper (sweater) and a long wool skirt with no socks and ballet pumps. There was less walking and more standing listening at 16.30 when we finished - brrrrrrrrr! Lovely!

When I went to Greenwich (covered) Market yesterday I got in a conversation with a female stallholder. She was amazed I didn't have a coat on. I went straight from the gym so was wearing a polo shirt and sweatshirt over it. I explained that if it wasn't such a crush in there I've had taken my sweatshirt off too She was amazed, but not so amazed she gave me money off the bracelet I was buying for my niece's Christmas present...

Not as cold as I'd like it, but not totally freaky.
Tuesday I am VERY happy about. My friend Teri is coming down, we're doing a London Walk and then going to see Crowded House. I feel better knowing it'd cold, crisp and DRY for walking about.

Quite decent of them to have the Celsius/Fahrenheit scale go all the way down to -50/-60 and all the way up to 50/120, just in case they need to indicate with dark purple that Georgia is experiencing some sort of incredible cooling. And they allocate the color "white" out to 60/140 just in case global warming accelerates.

Decent of SG to convert to Fahrenheit for us

It's kinda chilly here in Indianapolis but since the whole continental US is my playground, I can tell of warmth and frigid temps.

And I let beginner drivers fresh from their one-week CDL schools drive me around! <shudder>

I am SO looking forward to seeing my wife for New Years.

Lucky bastards.

Its warm here if the wind chill is above 0 degrees F.

But at least there is snow on the ground, cold windy weather with no snow is extremely depressing.

I was thinking of you truckers as I was driving up 81 last week through the snow. I'm amazed that you do that for a living. It was a tense drive for me, and there seemed to be plenty of trucks out that were doing just fine. Wonder if those drivers were tense too.

Actually, I have a question for you, BrianR. Sitting up so high like that in your rig, does the mist spray from the tires on the salty/wet road cover your windshield too, or can you see over the mist? In my car, you need good wiper blades (and plenty of washer fluid if it's salty.)
