What can I say?

First, my humblest apologies for not posting more often. I know how many of you depend on my words to get through the day. Second, remember wayyyyyyyyyyyyy back when I started this thing I said I was going to refrain from bitching about the weather? Well as we extend into our 14th consecutive day of 40 below, I just have to say FUCK ITS COLD. Your nostrils freeze, your thighs burn and you fight for breath. Not exactly cozy winter conditions. Anyway, the job continues to be a rollercoaster. But when you work for Satan's Mother-in-law that can happen.

The overall situation is also a mixed bag. The people are nice, there are ample choices for grocery shopping and a few mini-marts. When the ice fog lifts ( yes we have fog ) the mountains are scenic and its an easy town to navigate in. I miss my loved ones very much, and the nights are cold and lonely. With no car its hard to meet people, so you can see my dliemna. Things should get better as we get more daylight. We gain 4-5 minuts each day. And also some sunshine wouldnt make me mad. Random Thought: I think I hear a pug barking.

Anyway, I will try to post more often. And thank the universe you dont have to deal with 40 below temps
