The drive in to work was pretty miserable, as was the walk to and from the car. I do believe that it is good to have a bit of unpleasantness to help us appreciate when we are warm and dry better. Or maybe that's just my sour-grapes-style envy of people with garages connected to their houses.

I'm working from home as I picked up a cold late last week and don't want to spread it throughout the office (like some people seem intent on doing). But I feel guilty being home in the comfort of my home when some of my coworkers would have had to trudge in through this weather.

Yeah I'm glad I can potter and answer some emails. Finally cable up my speakers and fx pedals and put away all my laundry.
