Sorry homer this is going to be a trival post.

I would like to share something with you all.

DAMN It's Cold.

So this weather now is about what it is like on some of the worst Auckland winters with that damn wind blowing. To make matters worse the teachers in my school must have lived in a tent as all the windows and doors were open today (yes, the heaters were on too!).

I'm hoping that things will warm up nicely for christmas, the weather getting colder in october just seems wrong.

It's pretty cold today, but it ain't gonna get much warmer than this until next spring. Korea has some frigid little winters for not being Canada...

I NEVER understood why my Korean co-workers (back during the hagwan days) kept the window open when they had the heat on. It makes no sense to me whatsoever. Is there some sort of winter heater death corollary to the fan death myth we foreigners don't know about yet?
