Its been getting pretty cold down here for the past three days, due to the arctic air coming down from the north its been gettting to around 20-25 at night and around 40-50 in the day. Its not so bad but when it starts getting breezy, thats when it gets cold. Its not so bad for me, I know its significantly colder back home, I am used to the cold there, here its not so cold. I am not really looking forward to the weather though back home.
I have forgotten that when being outside in the sun for an extended amount of time people tend to get burned or tanned. I have gotten a considerable dark tan since starting. Derrick mentioned that I look almost Apache-like due to my dark complextion.

The week progresses well, besides the fact that I have a very large area to cover for work. But I cant complain, I wanted it, I got it, I have to live with it, at least until I find another job. I am getting used to being around people in a professional work place, but there is always the occasional shenanigans.
I hate colds, I have gone past the throat and lungs clogged with phlegm and moved toward the annoying coughs. Its been a while since I had a cold, I tell people this is no ordinary cold, that my reservation feral cold will probably strike down weaker individuals. I have drank juice by the gallon and pop cough drops like they are M&M's. At least my nose is not leaking.
So Derrick decides to burn off some finals anxiety for the weekend and has a little get together throughout the weekend with cook outs and food and movies including Star Wars Episodes 4, 5, 6, and 1, Super Toopers and Dumb and Dumber. And also a trip to the theatre to see The Corpse Bride; which was great, especially the music. It was a great weekend.
