Coldest day of the year so far

And I managed to leave my hat on the T the very first day I left the house with it this winter... last week.

No worries; I tend to lose one hat a month, during hat-wearing months. It would be different if I wore my hat every day, like I do with my glasses or my cellphone, enough to incorporate it into my self-extension field. Fooey.

I hate buying hats. I don't know where to get them, and I feel like I'll get the wrong one and look ridiculous. Very few places seem to carry the solid-black, non-patterned "cat burglar" pull-down caps that I favor. (See, I don't even know what they're properly called. I hate buying hats.)

Do you mean just a plain black knit cap, like a few available among the first 100 in this Froogle search? Hmmm, ones similar to that are popular among the gangsta set...I've had one for years and received some nasty looks when I was at a campground in Arizona five years ago--evidently they thought I was a young station-wagon driving thug wanna-be.
