excellent excellent. really enjoyed mwf last night. had chats with some very excellent people. making headway in novel. laptop is now virus-free. fingers are freezing off hands and can see my own breath when i exhale, and am sitting in my dining room. damn you lease terms that state fireplaces may not be used! damn you to the eternal flames, to the hot sizzling fire of hades. cannot wait to move to new place which has *three* fire places, the use of which are permitted and encouraged. i have already picked out my study. the kitchen floor there is sky blue. the bathtub there is claw footed. the floorboards there do not breathe cold air like these ones do.
i cannot wait.
