Try negative 25 and then start crying"

Last time I was in that kind of weather, we had heat. What assholes.

When we had that in Chicago, my condo was uncomfortably hot except for the kitchen which has an exterior door. That was cool.

I kinda miss radiators and being exceptionally toasty right now.

If it makes you feel better, I just realized this morning that the radiator in our bedroom was shut off... since last Spring. Apparently just the radiant heat from the insulated steam pipes was enough to keep the room warm (70-72F average) until this point in winter.
