That's right - that's a screenshot of weather.com's current (midnight!) temperature estimate for Ann Arbor. FUCK! But, I have to say, I was just outside for a bit and it really didn't feel that cold to me! Call me crazy! My snot didn't freeze. My face didn't chap. Apparently I'm getting acclimated - 32 degrees feels like a tropical breeze!

And Happy New Year to all! I rang in the new year here in Ann Arbor with Andre and Cookie. We enjoyed a lovely dinner and some champagne and then lots more alcohol. Maybe that's why we stay warm in Michigan - we drink a lot!

And for your viewing pleasure, here's my car - caked in snow from the 12 inches that fell on New Year's Eve! Charming - but a fucking mess!
