Texas Winter

Wow. it got below 30 degrees two nights in a row, closing down schools for two days and sending the entire city to H.E.B. to stock up on provisions.

Despite the fact that I will not enjoy paying for them at the end of the year, I enjoyed my two days trapped in the house. I did nothing. Not one damn thing. I read a lot. Played a lot of computer games, watched some BBC Office, watched some BBC Extras. Nothing that even remotely be considered work. (This is not to say I do not have work to do, I have tons of work to do, I just didn't do any of it.)

The annoying thing is that being trapped in your house is worse than a cruise in terms of eating. I ate nothing but what I could concoct from ingredients in the house, all of which were very yummy and very fatting. I apparently need lots of work and time away from home to distract me from the deliciousness that is bad for you food.
