Some days I think I’m a reasonably intelligent person and then there are days like today.

So we all know heat rises, right? If you don’t know that, I can’t help you anymore. So it’s winter. My upstairs is nice and toasty warm, but my downstairs can be a bit chilly because my air vents are in the ceiling. That means that the hot air just hangs around at ceiling level and it’s damn cold down here on the couch.

Except ceiling fans are amazing things! They have this wee switch that changes the direction of the fan blades. And when it’s cold outside, you can switch that and it pulls the warm air down and you no longer have to sit there and freeze your unmentionables off.
