Over at Teekay’s

…thanks to the indefatigable Edin H., who not only braved temperatures of -20 this morning to take a van to Kresevo but also made sure to be back from his critical research questions (when was the first occurrence of the word pita in the written record? What is cheese?) in time to provide me with hospitality, which in this case critically included a hot shower with real water.

Whatever civilization first came up with the idea of running pipes into apartments so we could take showers deserves our eternal gratitude. Or mine, anyway.

Now I need to burn the clothes I wore over the last few days.
