The secret lives of icicles

If anyone is curious as to how cold it is here in Madison, Wisconsin, here's a clue:

VERY

However, that means I made the cover story of the Daily Cardinal, one of the student newspapers, by being in the right place at the right time and by fucking freezing. That picture of the person who is completely covered except for her eyes? Yes. That's me. *waves*

(Incidentally, that's the hat I just finished knitting, and it kept my ears nice and toasty.)

Cool! I meant that as in ... neat! :p

But yes, cold. Wow. I don't think I cold handle that. (I don't have a memory of being in anything less than in the +20s.) But hey, the article said that it's the coldest week because it's the exact middle of winter, so it will only get warmer, right? :P

Yeah, it'll probably hover just around 20 for the next week or two and then start the slow bloom into spring. With a week off in April or May for a blizzard. Ah, Wisconsin.
