This sucks. I'm standing out in the freezing cold in the middle of an IKEA carpark at night in New Jersey waiting for a bus to take me back to New York. I've been on the verge of a cold for a week and this is sure to tip it over.

I had to return to the mother of all home furniture stores to order a few more things. But I think I'm all sorted now and stuff should be delivered in a few weeks.

Damn it's freakin' cold! I'd sit on the bench here apart from the fact that I don't want to get piles. It's made of metal and is colder than ice.

The bus isn't going to get here for another half hour so I'm trying to keep myself entertained, and warm. I tried speaking to the woman next to me but she only speaks Spanish so after a few smiles and a few head nods that 'conversation' died.

Ok my thumbs are almost blue from the cold so I'm going to go because without opposable thumbs we are nothing!
