What do you assign to Mordor? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I assign the situation that looks like being without a net access home the rest of my life. (Or at least as long as I live with my mum.)

Move to some friend who has a broadband connection...

Haha, a good idea. Though friends tend to want that I do something else than hang in the net.

Or maybe I could tell my mum: "If you won't get us a net access, I'll move to my father's place and it will be you who I'll be visiting on weekends."

Cold that chills you to the bone and does not go away, even when you get home.

I also assign more precisely windchills of -30 degrees and below (curiously enough, -30 C is almost -30 F... I won't bother with the exact conversion). Up to -20 to -25 it's ok... cold, but when the mercury closes in to -30 degrees it's when things start to get ugly

I assign walking around the house with one sock on.

I can stand walking around with one shoe on, because I know there's going to be a difference in my stride and the height of that foot, but with a sock there's just no warning.

I'll walk across a tile floor, and the foot with the sock will be warm, but then the bare foot will be cold, and then I step onto a rough carpet and one foot stays the same, and the other feels every bump.

And stairs are the worst. I find myself stopping and trying to remember which foot goes next.

Yes, I'm blonde, what of it?

Coughing, especially in public.

And Panther-sweets that taste good but have an effect of increasing the coughing.

Stepping in water on the kitchen floor. Having a wet foot is not nice.

Thank you. They didn't even taste that good.
