Gelé - Waking up today, I look at the Weather network app on my iPhone and it says "windchill of -35C." On days like that I just want to avoid civilization completely. Why not? It's too cold to do anything. Then you look at US TV, or hell.. Ontario TV and they're whining about this white powder called "snow", as if they've never seen it before, as if it's going to kill off the civilization. Um.. that's what winter is for.
I saw this ice lodge/backup and now I realize why my old room flooded each and every damned spring. Yum, the smell of mildew!

Gelé //29 mots sous la pluie
camaraderie //29 mots sous la pluie
Bienvenue tout le monde, welcome everyone! I've started a bit of a Flickr project titled « 29 mots sous la pluie. » Which, in English translates to "29 words in the rain." It's a project that brings together my feelings and thoughts together with photos. For 29 days I'll be doing un mot (one word) per day.
Why 29 mots sous la pluie? February is generally the most depressing month of the year for me. While it is the shortest month of the year, it also feels like the longest, as well as the coldest - and in some years - the most depressing. The phrase is an oxymoron for living in Manitoba as it's always a cold, gloomy windchill packed month.
For 29 days I'll be choosing one word en français to describe the mood.
Le mot ce jour - camaraderie - j'ai choisi ce mot parce que quand j'ai vu des bières de Chambly d'Unibroue, c'est comme une famille. Seule, c'est une bière delicieuse, mais ensemble, c'est une histoire. I chose the word because when I look at these Chambly beers by Unibroue, it's like a family. Alone, the beer's delicious but together it's like a story.

Photo of the day - January 13, 2010
Today's photo is "Rocky jolting rocks". My parents head to México in 5 days and I'm jealous beyong belief. It's already been 3 years since the last time I've been somewheres above +5C for more than an hour in winter time. Every day I wish I had a job so I could afford a tropical all inclusive vacation. Maybe I'll get a job in 2018 and go on a trip in 2020?
