Well, I decided that, while I understand mattresses that make you sore when you wake up, actively trying to stab me is not acceptable behaviour in a mattress. So I bought a new one

I love your comment about stronger drugs for stronger viruses!
I also beilieve that ramping anything can make a person stronger.
For the first point, I'm an ex-cocaine user. I can't go to the dentist without fear of pain because novacaine is a derivative of cocaine. I've practcilly made myself immune to it. Then again with my pain tolerance it doesn't matter that much.
For the second point. Ramping is wonderful. I do it every year at this time of year. Did anyone ever wonder why i don't mind the cold?? It's not just my genetics. Every fall I walk around in light pants and light-ish sweaters to make myself more comfortable in the cold. I force my body into it. Everybody thought "Oh, she's inuit, she can handle it." It's true the layer of fat that I have(The one that will never go away) helps. But has anyone ever seen "The Fast Runner"? or those cartoons with the "Eskimoes" in them. It's true, they do wear those nice big warm furs. And if not furs than equal-to synthetics. It is actually *&^$^%#^%@& cold up there. It's not entirelly pleasent down here either but, with enough will power and conditioning you can do anything.
It is easier to handle the cold if you get used to it. I'll have to think about this soon... I seem to remember the weather up north (north of North Bay) getting colder more gradually than down here, but that could just be the last few years. I liked winter lots better up there.
The other thing about the Inuit life seems to be that the winter months are spent hibernating, staying warm in a small place with lots of friends and family, eating the stuff you caught in the fall, and maybe going out now and then and getting animals that live in the water under the ice (I admit, I don't know an awful lot about the details). It's a different way of life than our [completely illogical] year-round office work. I think it's much better to live with nature, rather than trying to do the same thing all year 'round. Winter's good for staying home and cozy in front of the fire!
I like your layer of fat, it makes you nice and squishy. Yum, and good for snuggling.
