i'm wearing a tutu, corset, miniature top hat and layers of necklaces. linus is shredding a giant purple ribbon to bits (it was tied on his neck) and lucy is limping through the room yowling with her leg stuck through the neckhole of an old doll dress. the plan was to put on a show, you know, like we used to do when we were kids! i was going to make a stagefront from old cardboard boxes, too. sadly the cats aren't cooperating. and i was just preparing for my musical number!
the house is so cold there's ice on the inside of the windows. i turned the heat on this morning but bill got up and turned it off again. and i mean OFF - no lowering of the temp here, he cuts it off completely. i swear i'm going to catch pneumonia and die. he thinks we should just use space heaters all the time but electrical fees have gone up 20% this year and my little heater is so worn out that it shudders when i turn it on.this picture shows what it feels like inside my house:
i was getting ready on wednesday when i realized i could see my breath. don't i look pissed?
my breath clouds didn't show up in the picture. too bad. it's kinda creepy. 
i want this snow cone cart. i could be a snow cone vendor! would it be acceptable to get a monkey to go along with it? this is my future career.
the grass had frost so thick i was sliding on it. like ice skating or something.
i will be living in sweaters suits and layered tights for the next three months. linus has managed to get the ribbon off and he's climbed under the covers on the bed. i think i'm turning into a popsicle. it's too fucking cold! does anyone want to adopt us for the winter months? all we need is someplace with heat...
