I trust the weather

It's insanely cold and windy outside and I'm suffering through some kind of bug that makes me feel as if my sinuses and larynx have been flossed with steel wool. Normally that would have been enough for me to call it a day and crawl back into bed, but the office holiday party is being held today and the wife needed me to haul our comestible contributions into work.

While I zone out over a small plate of BBQ kielbasa and Mexican dip, please consider this modest musical offering in lieu of actual content from me on this day:

Throwing Muses - Colder (from House Tornado, 1988) - House Tornado was the first Muses album I purchased (along with The Pogues' If I Should Fall From Grace With God, at the long gone Strawberries store on the Middlesex Turnpike in Burlington), and it still sounds as esoteric and bizarre today as it did twenty years ago.
