We've been using an electric

We've been using an electric blanket on the bed for the last week or so because it's so butt-ass cold out. It does a great job, but it's kinda strange to climb into a bed that's been preheated. It's almost like going to the bathroom and finding that the seat is still warm from the last person. Eww, eww, eww.

And yes, I know I talked about blankets yesterday, too. It's almost ironical that I have so much to say about them.

On a sports note, we have yet to win a single broomball game this year. We did tie one time, but that's still not a win. It was so cold during tonight's game that two of my fingers actually broke off when I accidentally slipped and bumped into this dude on the other team. And when I say 'accidentally', I really mean 'deliberately', and when I say 'bumped into', I really mean 'knocked on his ass'. Either way, it was frickin' cold.

And the worst part wasn't they beat us 3-0, it was the fact that a wife of one of the players on the other team had brought a big thermos full of cocoa to pass out after the game. It was surreal to be sitting there - like the losers we were - watching the other team whoop it up and sip cocoa after their big victory. It's almost like I was hovering outside my body, watching the whole thing happen from a distance. Far out.

On a geek note, more people should be using Mozilla. It rules. Especially with the Orbit skin. I've been using it for maybe 6 months now and it kicks all over IE.

Here are some words that were used during meetings I attended today. The real world rules.

  • mute point
  • disvalidate
  • synergy
  • hard-on
