Brrrr! Okay, I know this is hardly original since practically everyone on my f-list is saying the same thing, but it is COLD out there today.

Seriously...so cold. Freeze-your-butt-off cold. I'm wearing two sweaters and a scarf and a pair of wool socks and I'm only just reaching a state where I have ceased to shiver. I look ridiculous.

Also I am compelled to eat BAD things, like macaroni & cheese. I sat here fighting the urge for like, an hour...until I finally got up & made some awful Kraft Macaroni & Cheese from a box. It was delicious, and I have to wonder why since I normally HATE the stuff. I'm certain it's the animal part of my brain telling me to eat fatty salty cheesy awful carbs because I might DIE if I don't. Right now, my lizard brain says the perfect follow-up to a huge bowl of awful Kraft Macaroni & Cheese would be a big fat mug of hot chocolate. I'm telling it to shut the hell up.

It's not exactly snowing outside...I don't know what to call it. It's as if all the moisture in the air is freezing & falling, but it's not really snow. There are no real clouds (in fact the sun is shining in a flat silvery not-warm way)...there's just this frozen mist sifting down lightly. It looks like powdered laundry detergent.

Days like this, I don't know why the heck I live here.

Yeah, it was -34 C when I woke up. THat's about -30 F. Meh, I don't care. If you dress properly with layers and scarves and hats and so on, it doesn't feel any colder than any other day. Actually I was out yesterday in a mesh lace shirt with my coat all the way open and I didn't feel a bit cold...only my hands were suffering, and they ALWAYS freeze because they're so damn thin. (Only part of me that is!) I didn't feel particularly cold at all. Weirdly, it's INSIDE that I get all frozen...

How are the new mask designs coming along? Oh, I left a few more (seriously, I'm quite into the idea of a gothic line, or maybe a Victorian line) on your...was it two entries ago? Anyway it was after everyone else had already commented so it came late and you said LJ was screwing up a lot lately so you might not have gotten the notification for the comment, so if you didn't, yep...ended up leaving another blort of 'ooh, this'd be cool!' suggestions two entries ago or so. THe lace and the poison apple and so on.

God, if I could draw! If I could draw...wow, that would open my possibilities up hugely. I'd come up with so many weird things...

Waaah...I'm just hating the deep freeze right now. :-( I get chilled and then I just STAY that way, and not much helps. It makes me feel like sleeping all the time ('cause my bed is so warm with like 3 quilts piled on it).

I need to do some exercise but there is NO way I'm going out to the gym...heck no. *eyeing the stationary bike*

I'll check my responses...LJ has been buggy & funny & yeah I probably missed something. Of course now that I have so many neat suggestions I'm actually getting orders but I'm not complaining. Money is good!
