Uh, Spongebob, I think there's something in your teeth.

The horror.

It was a nice day last Monday so I took Fromage for a spin. There's a stroller with Bob L'Eponge hanging from it near where I park Fromage, and I noticed something funkay about the plushie's smile. Dunno what kind of bug that is, or even if it's alive, but it's some kind of January moth with mangled wings.

It snowed again yesterday night, but it was only a brief slurry, and it didn't stay on the ground, though it's been very cold at night recently. I know it's been like -20 at home, but the cold here is so very pervasive. When I get home in the evening, my apartment is only warmer than outside because the walls block out the wind; I wear my coat until the heater hits its stride. My electricity bill this month was comparable to what it was in the summer when I had to run the a/c or start peeling off my own flesh in a vain attempt to get cooler.

Have I mentioned that, to pay bills here, one brings the bill to the convenience store and pays at the counter? It's the best thing ever. They just scan it, charge you, you hand over the money, and it's done. I will miss that, most definitely.
