Boogie Blogging Friday (Now With Fuzzy Gloves and Squee)

Friday, December 11, 2009

Here's Boogie, taking a nap on his futon after his oh-so-fun daily walkies. As you can see, he's busy with his favorite fall/winter hobby - dragging in the seeds of every weed that grows in the open space near the Big Yellow House and depositing them all over the house.  He's a helpful, helpful dog.

And on an unrelated note, it has been FRICKEN COLD here in Colorado for the last week or so, and since I work in the basement, I've been chronically chilly. So chilly, in fact, that my hands have been practically numb by the end of the day. That makes working a bit tough, so I have purchased these nifty new fingerless gloves for weeks like these. I understand this style is quite the rage these days (although the fuzzy raspberry color would probably be considered a sartorial mistake), but really - it's all about not freezing.

Fuzzy gloves aside, I've got a bit of the SQUEE going on today, too. I'm scheduled to have dinner with a dear friend whom I haven't seen in over twenty years, and recently reconnected with via Facebook. I can't wait to see her again, but she was snowed in at Chicago yesterday so her availability is still in question. Stupid weather...

(Woo... I'm almost caught up to the present.)

I've been trying to see how long I can go without turning on the heat in here. Been wearing lots of layers and fuzzy hats. A warm hat will do more to keep your hands warm than gloves, because your head is where all the heat goes. Gotta keep the brain warm so it'll function and all. ;) If there's not enough heat to go around, it gets sucked out of your hands and feet.
