Elvis Kimli has left the building apartment!
I’ve worked from home for the last two days thanks to the snow, meaning I haven’t set foot outside since Sunday afternoon. Today I was utterly fed up with being at home, so I bundled up as best I could (if I didn’t have proper winter wear in Calgary, what are the chances of my having it in Vancouver?) and set out for the space station.
It took some very fancy maneuvering to get the car out of our parking spot, but the main roads were more or less clear. Of course, I had to pick the day with the Heavy Snowfall Warning to be the day I left the house – I may be heading home soon, if the weather takes a turn for the icy. Also, the Space Station is incredibly frigid. The building owners are working off the Australian forecast – it’s the only explanation for the lack of air conditioning in the western hemisphere summer, and the lack of heat (but extra AC) in the dead of winter. It’s okay, really. I often bemoan the fact that I can feel my feet but now! No worry! If I play my frozen cards right, soon I won’t be able to feel my fingers either!
Hooray!
