Good evening!

There was some pretty interesting stuff tonight. Get bundled if you decide to have a look for yourself, though; it's stupid how cold it is out there.

That's a lot of paper! For my younger readers, this is what information used to look like before the internet was invented.

I went through a few of the bins in the hope of establishing some kind of pattern, but it appears to be quite a hodgepodge of reading material.

This seems like kind of a strange place for an office. The view isn't bad, but I would have some issues with the climate if I were working here. To be more specific, I think my face would fall off.

I think most of this is a DVD player, but I'm not really sure what the white objects on top are. If you're particularly tech-savvy, feel free to check it out and let me know!

This armchair is alarmingly charming. I'd like to say more about it, but I can't think of any other adjectives containing the word 'arm' (except for smarmy, but that's hardly an appropriate descriptor for such a lovely and sincere piece of furniture).

This thing looks like it was once used to carry groceries. It appeared to be in working order, just a little dirty on the front. Maybe the owner just ran out of garbage bags and had to use this instead.

If you live in Ottawa and have access to a window, you're probably capable of meeting your refrigeration needs, but anyway, here's a fridge. In case you can't read it, a message has been written on the front. On top, it says 'FREE' (which I think is implied, given the circumstances), and just below that, 'WORKING' (which is good to know; don't you just hate it when you carry a fridge all the way home just to find out it's broken?).
