I miss the sun
Over on Tom Skilling's Weather Blog, he mentioned that, from December 1-11th, the Chicago area has received only 13% of the maximum possible sunlight it could receive for that time period. He also mentions that the average for that same time period is 39%.

We only had 784 minutes of sunlight in those 11 days. I'm on the train before sunrise and I'm on the train after sunset. The only possible chance I can get to see the sun is during lunch and, when not sick or in the hospital I've been working through lunches trying to finish producing 3 DVD's before the end of the year.
Today I actually made it out into the cold for a good portion of my lunch hour. The sun was out and, even though there was a biting wind, it was nice to see. I wish my body had not failed me during my walk, or I would have enjoyed it even more.
