But, of course, Tam does. I needed to grab a couple of bottled of water from the garage and I'm running warm enough that a quick trip in whatever it is out there, 32°F more or less, wasn't going to make things worse.
So I grabbed a key and headed out, remarking loudly, "I'm just going outside, and may be some time."
