What's happening in your world?

[Lord Punctual]

You're probably going to find this hilarious, but I pretty much feel that I have to have the air conditioner on all summer long in order to survive my Canadian summer. That, or hide in the basement. Good ol' basement.

My sister and brother-in-law lived in the Northwest Territories (interesting fact - it's not actually the westernmost of our northern territories) a few years ago, and it regularly got into the -50s and -60s without counting wind chill. That was also far enough north for there to be 24 hour darkness in the winter months. I can honestly say I've never experienced that kind of cold, but I'm told it's cold enough for tears to flash freeze on your eyelashes if you aren't careful. (Terrifying, eh?)
