It's..........soooooooooooo........COLD.
The heaters don't start working till Nov. 1st. Till then, everyone just has to freeze. Last night, I slept with my coat on, two regular blankets and two fleece blankets, and it still wasn't enough. Tonight, I will sleep with all of the above PLUS gloves, a scarf, a hat, a second pair of pants and a second pair of socks. It must be in the low 40s outside and maybe the high 30s inside.
I miss my Florida sun!
Today, we spent the whole day in the kitchen cooking to keep warm. I nearly joined the potatoes in the boiling pot of water. Instead of using powdered sugar for a recipe, I opted for the solid hard cubes and pouncing on them with the grip of my knife for what seemed an eternity in order to keep moving and (possibly?) sweat. I hope this is just a cold front and not the start of winter!
UPDATE: Thank GOD the heaters started working today. May the lord bless the guy who flipped the switch and saved us from another sleepless, shivering night.

Damn, that's a lot to sleep in. I feel it might be illegal in the US to let it be so cold inside and not put on the heat.
And I thought my room was cold. Come with us to Seville, dude!
Wow, send some of that cold my way! Here in Gainesville it's STILL stinkin' hot and humid! This is nearly the end of October. I know -- you're from Miami and used to this, but Gainesville still hot and humid at the end of October? OK, I'll send you my heat and humidity for a cool breeze!
