Jan. 14th, 2009 12:59 pmHuh. I has an icicle. ( Picture )
Luckily it's on the outside of the window and not the inside. Although I have my own problems with the inside. (Namely, CONDENSATION OMG. All twelve panes on each window are regularly three-quarters to all the way covered in dew much of the day. I have definitely got some mold colonies here and there. I combatted it today by doing what the internets told me--opening all the windows that aren't painted or warped shut for twenty minutes, then raising the blinds all the way instead of just twisting them open. It did clear up like magic, but I dislike the idea of having artic air running through the apartment every day. Also, it still hasn't really warmed back up yet. Perhaps just raising the blinds will help...although that presents its own problems, since I can pretty much feel wind gusts through the freakin' glass, and the blinds helped somewhat with that. Oh, well...)
I also has plants! I will show you pictures ( here )
