I walked outside and the local bank clock/thermometer read 7:10 am (blink...pause) -10 degrees C'. Ouch.
School was back on today after two days of cancellations. It was my first time ever delivering a lecture where each word was tangible - you could see my breath with each line from Othello read; my first time where students were frozen to their seats, literally, and not because they absolutely love Of Mice and Men.
Supposedly Russia will turn the lever to ON tomorrow, but it will be another few days until the heat arrives. In the meantime the students freeze, the teachers freeze, and we eat Bulgarian soup in popsicle form for lunch.
