Ha!
In her (and my) defense, she knows there's no way in hell I drive in frozen if there are options.
I guess that saves me the spectacle of entering my car through the trunk.
Lost comedy gold though...
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Um, btdt. Car was snowed in, it was easiest to unearth the trunk (to get to the shovel!!!) and shove a lot of the snow off by opening doors. But that was the Presidents' day snow, which had the National Guard patrolling for people in distress. It was insane. And I spent most of a day uncovering my car.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
So, since I couldn't go out tonight I should make brownies instead. Right?

Just use 4 oz sticks.

hip deep in pie
I made cheesecake, and stupidly took it out of the pan too early, and it cracked like mad. I now have it in a saran wrap sling trying to keep it together.

Maybe a cup of hot water, aurelia?
This, except a kettle, not a cup. Especially if it'll take you a few minutes to get from your door to the car -- wrap the kettle in a towel or something to keep the heat in on the way. It is possible you'll just build up more ice, but I think it's worth a try. The ice holding the door shut shouldn't be all that thick, it's just that it's the entire door edge. So even melting a little might make enough difference to you get the door open.
That said, be careful! With the hot water and the ice and the driving and the glavin.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I'd get isopropyl alcohol at the drugstore and pour that on the doors
