Seems we'll get to keep the nice winter weather for a few more days. It was said that it'd be warm this weekend, but yesterday the meteorologists changed their minds and now it's going to be decently cold. So the snow and (since it's been cold and warm in off and on for awhile) ice will stay. This morning it was about -14 C. Not terribly cold, but enough that I like to take a few extra minutes biking to my morning lecture to spare my throat.
I like to keep my room fairly cool, I sleep better that way. But I need my warm shower in the morning to come out of hibernation properly and start moving at normal speed (I may be part reptile, that'd explain it). This morning I didn't have time, but instead had to go out and get even colder. Naturally I didn't get much from the first hour of the lecture.
Now I'm done with lectures for the week though and I think I'm going to go up and soak in the tub with an old paperback for an hour or two.

Oh, the quote of the week is: "You look fifteen years younger!" my little brother's girlfriends reaction to my haircut. This is kind of worrying at 23. Did I look 38 before or do I look like an eight year old now? Speaking of which, I heard this in a commercial for some skin care product: "Now you can look as young as you feel." To which I thought that I'd hate to look that old at this age.
