here comes the cold

hello
hope this finds everyone well. things are going well here. Laurel is starting to get more hours, and is due for a raise and promotion very soon. Things have been picking up for in class, lots more work, and lots more reading. I've been doing a lot of that lately. I'm also trying to come up with some good ideas for a thesis topic.
yesterday it decided to get cold here, so we've shut the windows and got out the blankets. ww haven't had to run the furnace yet, we're hoping our landlord's heat will seep up and keep us warm.
not much else new. Tiger is getting bigger. and naughtier.
