I'm ok up until the holidays - after that I call it the "hundred days" the trick is to hold off coming unglued until day 80 or so...

In Barrow, Alaska, its perfectly acceptable to lose it - but they get concerned if it happens too early....

I got a feeling this winter is going to be a nasty one on several fronts...
