Quick selfie
My furnace isn't working. This isn't the disaster in Los Angeles that it would be in Michigan, but it still gets damn cold inside my poorly insulated little bungalow when temps drop. So I'm currently doing my best impression of the Madonna, having read somewhere that you lose a huge amount of body heat (possibly as much as 40%!) out of your head (presumably out your ears?) and that if you keep it covered/wrapped up, you will be warmer all over. I'm keeping small beach towels, afghans, and throws in all the rooms, and wrapping up my head and shoulders while working at my computer, or sitting up in bed reading, or lounging on the sofa. Since it's the Christmas season, and also since I haven't done a selfie in a while, I decided to capture bundled-up me in a quick ink and watercolor portrait.
