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

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

Hush, you, sarameg.

For the record, the web site has updated the recipe. Quick service.

I do have to avoid snarfing the whole tray, even though they're broken. I wish my appetite would calm down. I'm running out of clothes.

Turns out the guy that woke me at ass o'clock on Saturday was indeed interviewing me for a position for which I was not suited. I explained it a million times to the recruiter, but nothing.

Melatonin doesn't work, ambien script not called in. I hope tonight goes better than last.
