Not as bad here as where you are. Our winter isn't exactly like yours and
the ground rarely gets that cold. Cold water from the tap is lukewarm in
winter and warm in summer.

Bad Girl, adding to your own message.
I'm so bored and I'm sooooo sick of TV. Not a decent movie to watch and
everything and everyone is caught up with the extravaganza going on in LA.
I'm just so sick of it. There has to be something more important going on
in the world.
I suppose I'm going to be forced to watch Law & Order SVU for the 100th time
or the Cooking Channel.

So sorry about your boredom. That's how I get for about the week before I
get my blood pumped up - can't really do much, and end up watching tons of
bad tv. If you haven't seen it - try "Cake Boss" - I think it's on one of
the food networks - hysterical. Very, very NJ. Especially the episode when
he's doing the cake for a "social club" - right out of the Sopranos. I
think the bakery is in Hoboken - and they do some amazing stuff. DH loves
this show - the cakes are fabulous, plus you get all the hysterical stuff of
a big Italian family owning both a retail bakery with this huge custom cake
business. Last night we saw an episode in which they made a cake to look
like some recently discovered largest mammal ever - for the new exhibit at
the Museum of Nat History. Awesome.
