She haz a poyte.
FWIW, it's colder up here. -18C, tomorrow a high of -9C. But again, it's not like you're going anywhere anyway. Pretty much all the roads are closed to the North and to the West of town. You can still escape South right now though.

Just checked. I guess 12F is colder than -9C. But Weather.com is telling me that Cleveland is also supposed to be -9C.

12F is colder than -9C, so tomorrow we have you beat. But today, yeah, you get the trophy (and welcome to it!)
I hate Farenheits, it was harder to transition to, for me, than pounds vs kg.
I was wondering if the schools were going to be closed today, but they were open. After-school activities might be cancelled though. Not yet... I keep waiting for an E-mail. I have no idea what the windchill is, but it was miserable walking my 0.7 miles to work in the ind tunnel.

One hundred and eighty.
Yup.
180.
Oh, and btw, freezing is somehow 32. Which, despite working on a doctorate, I still don't understand. And I have read War and Peace and had some sort of comments aside from quote what a long book end afterward.
Thanks a lot.
180.

Growing up with metric system and then going to F's and Lb's and inches was like growing up in a modern world and then going back to pit toilets and and using leaves to wipe.
You think F vs C conversion it tough, just wait until you try to convert psi into pascal.

As a humanities type, I am immune from ever having to convert psi into pascal.

Back east now. Switched out the Pius; I'm done with that hippy mobile after bivying in -10 f temps last night at a KY rest stop, then waking up to a dead battery. Back in mah taco now and en route with the lady friend for the Daks. Beware, Ice Tawk may commence. But prolly not.

False dichotomy. yeah, it seems to assume sleep is a constant. camhead doesn't need his beauty sleep? I guess not? The saturday night he was here, we were up drinking until 12:30 or 1, then he got up at 6 to go climb with jak at teh slightly overhanging slabby area.

Cept fer that won brief moment. Course, it's easy to be brilliant at the slightly overhanging slabby area. Still, teh clamhed redsighted Trophy, Flesh, Rapter, Leviathan... pretty much back to back and a then a spin on teh Hanging before he had to head oft to brokeback mt. with Trashy.
That slightly overhanging slab area was the only day in the last month that I've been warm.

I tacked on a couple of extra days so I'll be competing in Switzerland, Italy and France now. Climbed only one day this weekend. My ankle is so fucked. Fortunatly IWC is all overhanging stuff so hopefully it won't be too bad, but I'm definitely more limited than I was originally letting myself believe. I saw that... and I saw that chossy just left for Korea? You globe-trotting couple, you! I hope your ankle feels better by then. Are you doing anything for it, other than making it hurt by climbing? Ed's ankle seems to be taking a lot longer than he was lead to believe (or that he talked himself into believing), too. He is climbing O.K., and seems to have improved quite a bit in the two weeks of the trip. But the major part of improvement was that he figured exactly how to wrap/tape it for the hike. Even so, he was limping at the end of the day on most days, and didn't feel up to dancing in the evening. So I dragged my swingity-swing shoes all the way to Vegas... in vain. Oh, and in other gnus, Ed attempted to teach camhead's GF how to swing dance. She was a quick study. But camhead was not amused. Even though he played some really good swingity dance music to go with the fajitas one night. No comment. Ed kept telling me I had to learn to dance, and I tried to just give him the grumpy cat "no" look. No.  We've lost a lot of good climbers to dancing.
Assuming a lot is nonzero.

Marning yinz. Still snowing here. Day 6.
I'm all packed up to head back to St. Catharines tonight, but whether I do or not will all depend on weather and road closures. Supposed to get less snowy tomorrow.
