20 BELOW

We just got a newsletter from the building managers of my building saying starting in August there will be no smoking in this building. Until this was a smoking building. I'm happy because somebody down the hall smokes some really rank cigarettes that make me ill when I smell the smoke.

I was just thinking about this heat....I heard a radio DJ this morning say as bad as it is outside isn't it still better than 20 below zero? To which I think to myself, lets be honest here, I was in my car so I said out loud as if I was having a conversation with my radio, no I'd rather 20 below zero for the simple fact that at 20 below, I can put layer after layer of clothing on until I am warm....but if it's scorching hot, humidity high, generally miserable.....there are only so many articles of clothing I can take off in public before I get arrested...Personally I would rather live somewhere where it is always in the 50 to 75 degree range....that would be glorious.

20 below makes me think of smokers for some reason....I'm thinking, ok, it's 20 below, snowing, wind blowing like crazy, but you can't smoke inside pretty near anywhere anymore except at home, but here you have a habit that forces you to bundle up and stand in a blizzard for a fix....just doesn't sound too fun.....
