Gets up, surfs the channels for the weather, turns the heater on, walks around the house and goes back to the bedroom.
-You’re not going to work today?
-No. No way. It’s only half a Celsius degree –says in the tone of a judge delivering a verdict.
-So, what? Do people not live when it’s cold?
-They do. But I don’t.
And goes slowly back into the coffin.
