Too cold!
Holy crap! There is currently a wind chill of negative forty here. Negative forty. That is in no way civilized - temperatures like this shouldn't be allowed. I have decided that there is no way in hell I'm going outside today. Seriously, I don't care if my house catches fire, I'm not leaving (in fact, if my house catches fire I might be able to get warmed up). This is bloody ridiculous - even my dog doesn't want to go outside. O.o

In other news, I finished all my bloody marking yesterday. They all did pretty well actually, but not so well that there wasn't some unintentional hilarity, which I will share with you now:

1. "Even though in this world of ours there is an abundance of different deities, none of them hold presidents over another"
2. "Demea cannot handle these so-called blasphemous statements stated by Philo, and has to leave the room to relieve himself."
3. "And for anyone who has not studied electricity under a microscope to the point that they could actually see "electricity" itself, which is a large portion of the entire world, has no concrete and infallible reason to believe in electricity.
4. "Skepticism may exist as a principal..."

I think my personal favourite is number two, just for the mental image of Demea shitting himself over Philo's blasphemy. XD

Right, that's all for now - I'm going to go find some lunch and put on another sweater.

HAHAHA those are classic. I'm also partial to number 2 (number 2!!! Hahaha the irony!) but I'm also loving the pretend electricity.

The weather there sounds dreadful. And I thought it was getting chilly over here! o.O

The electricity one was also made of awesome/despair. Incredibly, that's the second person I've encountered in my three years of grading who honestly believed that electricity could be viewed through a microscope - it's beginning to worry me. O.o

It's not quite as bad today - the wind chill is only negative thirty-goddamn-four. I'm going to be spending a lot of time walking through the Tunnel at the uni today (ordinarily I avoid it due to the incredible creepiness of it, it's pretty safe during the day, and I figure the odds of my getting frostbite outside are higher than the odds of my being attacked today).

Oops - "...but it's pretty safe during the day..." I meant to type. The major problem here is that my fingers are freezing off, due to the fact that I'm sitting next to a window and the wind is coming through the glass. O.o
