Now that wintertime is upon us now with 6 months till springtime to go, how will you tackle the next 6 months?:(

Here are a few tips!

Hot chocolate!
The odd piece of chocolate!
More thin layers of “cloths!”
Hot soup and bread!

And most importantly look out for the elderly not door to you! Or the homeless as well!
 
Layers! Two pairs of gloves! Scarves!

Oh, and I like sitting on my bed with my Powerbook, and covering myself with the sheets to make a little cave. Then I turn on folding, and let the heat from the Powerbook warm my little cave.

That’s a good idea why didn’t I think of that.:)
 
It's not even that cold! Seriously. I was working on my ceiling today wearing shorts and t-shirt with the window wide open. I've not turned on my heating yet either...
 
It's 1:40am here and I'm sitting at my desk with the windows wide open. I've got a short-sleeved shirt and a pair of boxers on and am quite comfortable.

It's a "chilly" 18°C currently according to my oft-inaccurate weather widget.

I hate spring. Two weeks ago it was 39°C, one week ago it was 16°C and today it actually rained. Some parts of the state got up to 20mm of rain today - more than in the entire month of October but still not enough to even consider thinking the drought might be breaking.

This drought is really bad - it's been going since 1998 and even Sydney's water supply has dwindled to less than 40% of its capacity. It would be at 20% if they weren't pumping water from one of the rivers down south. One farmer commits suicide every four days according to the figures. It's just so dry and decent (by decent read "flooding akin to the end of the world") rain is not coming.

For all you guys up north this winter please take a minute to send good thoughts down here because it's going to be another deadly, hot dry summer and we can't take too many more.
 
I hear you - it is FREEZING (well, relatively, but then again, I am from East Africa!) outside... I have three layers on in my office - and I still feel a tad chilly. At least it is sunny though...
 
I suggest you get a yule log for your itunes :)

All you need is a hot PB, iBook, MB or MBP on your lap and a yule log running on the screen :D
