Old man winter
January 18th, 2007

It’s been surprisingly warm this winter, I mean like record breaking temperatures. Three days ago it was 72. Today it’s 28 and snowing/sleeting/freezing rain.

School’s closed so I’m stuck at home trying to work at my “real” job and resist the lure to work on my WIP and knock out some of the rest of it… I’m making steady progress at it, but I sure do with I was done (I’m sure my editor does too).

Anyhoo, here’s an odd piece of news I found this morning.

Apparently a chimp at the Little Rock Zoo escaped, raided the kitchne, then cleaned the toilet with a toilet brush (that’s a little weird). The thing is, this chimp was 120 pounds. Um, I’m thinking they’re small-ish, at least under 75 pounds or so… but 120 pounds? That’s bigger than my 14 YO. That would scare the absolute crap outta me if I found this thing on top of my fridge!

Just a random story that made me go 0_0. How’s everyone else faring out there? So much bad weather and ickiness, even in southern areas that don’t get it. Global warming anyone?
