when it's cold...

...the coffee tastes better. and that isn't even quite right, it FEELS better. i just thought i would make that observation.

and lets be serious here, 27 degrees isn't exactly cold in the midwest. but, relative to the weather this past weekend it is.

long day at work left me feeling drained last night. almost the feeling i get before i get sick. so i opted out of my scheduled run. then we went range shopping...you see our stove broke and the repair cost rivals the replacement cost. apparently, you don't fix things like this anymore. you trash it and buy a new one. did i mention it's 5 years old? it's not totally broke, it's usable. it's just that the oven turns off after prolonged use...not exactly what you want when you are hosting thanksgiving.

it feels like it should be friday today. one of those weeks i guess.
