Zero degree wind chill today.
Folks living nearby still have air conditioners in their windows.
Snow covered.
Why do I always have to do what's right and logical?
Why can't I be more like those people?
Summer will be back again before you know it.
They'll be all set.
I'll be sweating, fretting and struggling to put mine in.
It's a bloody shame that ...
... heat has to go along with sin ...
