Cabin fever?
Jan. 29th, 2004 08:16 am"We used to have a saying about Cabin Fever; If the serving girl hasn't tried to kill you by the middle of February, she hasn't got any backbone."

January is really hard in Minnesota. If it isn't the lack of sunlight, it's the killing temperatures. We're below zero right now again and it's supposed to get colder still later on...and I have plans after work.I'm not allowed a bonfire at work, but the heaters keep breaking down. Last night I woke up at midnight and listened to the Gurgling, choking sounds of our struggling boiler.
Okay, so it's an excuse to wear everything I've ever knitted for myself at the same time...but all that wool gets really heavy. *sob* Cold bad!!!! Cold bad!!!!
I think today it's the heavy boots and the warmest socks I own, yep yep.
