For the sake of historical preservation...

It seems almost cliche to comment on today's weather, but for the sake of historical accuracy, please allow me to make the following remark: today was stinking cold. When I woke up a little before 6:00, the windchill in Peoria was -28. The actual temperature was a balmy -17. I think the high was somewhere in the neighborhood of -8. I like winter--fleece jammy pants, hot tea, snow (snow that, unlike in Rockford, actually melts here once in a while), memories of when Josh and I first met. But this, this goes beyond winter. This is painful, tear-inducing, booger-freezing cold. This is just ridiculous.

Can I get sunshine with a side of beach, please?
