I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

God forbid we should sing a song that's a little difficult and actually says something.

Thrive to spite them

Professional hockey is exclusively indoors, otherwise no hockey in Florida.

The outdoor classic is an occasional thing.

I think it's finally stopped snowing there, or at least not as hard. They said before the game it was sleeting. Those goalies look so cold.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I actually heard the Cheers theme music here in the ER. I am being mocked. But at least it's a nice doctor on duty.

Happy birthday, Susan. No need to start a diet on your birthday.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm a ball of rage today, and I think it has something to do with my dad playing InAGaddaDaVida full blast upstairs. Or that it's cold like a meat locker in here.

I never thought I'd say this, but I sort of miss the abundance of attractive people SoCal offers the eyes. And? And? I now understand why dating was so much easier here.

Seriously. People look tired and like their skin is filled with frozen silly putty.

Winter kills.

I'm so sorry you're starting the year in the ER, ita. I hope 2008 is the year you get relief.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It was mostly after 9/11 and some country guy had a hit version of "God Bless America" and it sort of swept the heartland as this dawning feeling of "Yeah, let's sing the America song with God right in the title."

Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA," which was actually a nice song before rabid jingoists adopted it in the spirit of I'm American, Everyone Else Fuck Off.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Birthday Susan!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

OMG, the Winter Classic is so much fun! There's the snow, the energy, the craziness! The only bummer is the delay for ice maintenance, but I guess I don't want the players to get hurt.

I tivoed the Rose Bowl parade and the Michigan game. This is a fun sports day.

OMG. I want to go home. I don't know how to go about doing that without hurting my mom's feelings.
