company man

once again, i think my choice of clothes should influence the weather. i was watching some 'arrested development', and it was like being back in southern california for 45 minute intervals. kelly and i were also doing a load of towels in the laundry. i paused the episode, grabbed my keys and some 20p coins, and ran out to change the load from wash to dry. I went downstairs, out the door, sprinted over to the building where the laundry room is, and as i fumbled with my keys in the dark, in my boxers and grey shirt, i realized, I am in SCOTLAND. and it is COLD. furthermore, i am getting WETTER the longer i fumble with these keys.

note to self: boxers and grey shirt not sufficient for arctic temperatures. invest in some mittens and some common sense.

Lindy,
I propose that adult conspiracy should, in interest of furthering your education, force you to remain in Scotland the whole year. Or perhaps force you to go to a place that is actually arctic. Study abroad in Greenland? hmmm....

To the person who posted above: I have a good friend from Greenland who is incredibly excited about global warming. He says that it's going to be warm and sunny there, and that they'll have trees and a lot more space.

Lindy: I miss cold weather! Don't worry, you get used to it. Kofi once told a story that when he moved to Minnesota he refused to wear earmuffs because he thought they looked silly, until one day his ears froze! Follow the locals, and stop running around in your boxer shorts in the middle of the night.
