PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Today's wind-chill RealFeelTm low: -5F.Tomorrow: about the same, except windier. Number of layers I had to wear outside today: way too many. Joint motion lost at shoulders and elbows: most of it. Expected duration of cold snap: through Sunday. Stuff I left in the car: significant. Chance I'm going back for it tonight: none. 
Additional insult: my thermostat needs servicing. I have heat, but I have to turn it up to over 75 before anything kicks in.

So you're saying this weather feels like a nine-inch needle to your stomach?

So I shouldn't complain about the double digit positive numbers here, huh?

Friday we have a chance of ice. Hopefully just enough to make things pretty and not enough to be a huge problem.

Gosh, Mr. Typical Winder Day, I thought spring traditionally arrived in Canada on the 17th of August.

According to the National Weather Service, the minor flurry currently hitting my area is named Khan.

No, The Weather Channel named it Khan.The National Weather Service doesn't name winter storms and thinks The Weather Channel is being stupid.

Take heart, it just means that neither you nor your radio are weather nerds.(the Nerds, generally speaking, also think The Weather Channel is being stupid.)

LAST EDITED ON 01-28-13 AT 01:34 PM (EST)LAST EDITED ON 01-28-13 AT 09:50 AM (EST) Certain activities which would normally be considered perfectly ordinary become hazardous in the cold. Like, say, walking past a self-service open-bay car wash. To wit, the kind of car wash where you pull your car in at any hour of the day or night and put quarters into machines which at least occasionally bother to count them and activate hoses that spray your car with soap and water except that the owner of the car wash maintains nothing and those hoses continually leak regardless of quarters so in cold weather you get a slow flow of soap and water which freezes to the concrete and builds up in layers as still more leaks out because the hoses themselves never freeze and ultimately this results in a glacier coating the entire sidewalk in front of the car wash plus part of the road so you can't step into it and you can't cross the street because there's nowhere to walk there so it's either middle of the road and die or try to inch your way very carefully across the ice field and oh dear gawds I'm going to be feeling that for weeks. I'm not a particularly litigious person: I've never sued anyone over anything. But this time, I am sorely -- very sorely -- tempted, if only to scare the facility's owner into fixing the bloody hoses before someone dies. Ow.

Not knowing exactly how ample the part of you that impacted the ground was (picturing butt, but it could have been something way worse, I had a friend that nearly died from a slip and fall on the ice), I don't know how much consolation should be directed your way. But here's some anyway; "Sorry to hear, I hope there are no broken bones, I hope you heal soon, and if it was a butt splash, are there pictures?" Good luck on the lawsuit, if you sue the carwash owner. However, he/she probably isn't making much money during the winter, so you may end up with a leaky car wash that you'll have to chance a daily visit in order to empty the coins and replenish soap/wax/etc.

Maybe you could borrow the Newark Mayor for an afternoon to chip all the ice away and replace the hoses. He was on the news this morning for working the Animal Control Beat and saving a puppy from freezing to death. Surely he will save your bruisables from the evil ice.

Yeah, after two weeks of -15 to -20 temps and hard packed snow, it's plus 12 right now and the pouring rain has already wiped out all of the built up snow on the ground. It was so dangerously icy that schools were closed on Monday (they never close even during blizzards!) and the ice claimed Pene again - fractured wrist, in a cast. 366 days after a wipeout that needed surgery to put a rod into her leg.

In for a penny, in for a pound.
In truth, the drizzle was a little heavy. Kind of like fog gotten too fat. The leaves were almost dripping. *shudder*
