Alright so I was mistaken in blaming my dad for setting the thermostat too low, because apparently our heater wasn’t working. Sorry, pa. Now the heater is crankin’ and I no longer have icicle fingers!

I also really wanted to do a Thursday Thoughts post yesterday, but Wednesday involved a long nap and other happenings, so I couldn’t get around to it. At any rate, Friday always means fascinating links! Here is my ninth link love featuring interesting, funny, and awesome articles and posts that I’ve found this week. Enjoy!
