1. We are having nice weather in Houston, 47 right now, 37 later on.
I have my woodburning stove going, just love the smell and sound.

Earlier I was outside on the deck watching the moon, I just love this time of year.

2. It is colder than a WELLDIGGERS ASS out there
at least the wind has died down somewhat. I just about froze my cojones off walking to work yesterday.

(btw, cojones is Spanish for "co-hoe-nays")

11. 'Tis cold tonight here too.
Edited on Fri Nov-18-05 12:58 AM by Jamastiene
My desktop weather program is saying 34°F but I feel colder. It's supposed to hit 24°F before the night ends. I know one thing. It's colder than a Republican's heart outside tonight.

17. I've been outside all three days.
Well to go to work and shopping. And today was the nicest of the last couple. As long as it's not blowing a cold wind I'm ok. I just dress warm.
