This winter makes me wonder how more people in Scandanavian countries don't go absolutefiskly batshit and just start randomly battering things people with shoes and poles and moles and frozen otters and such.
Vodka?
Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Saunas. Lots of saunas in Scandinavian countries.
And then they go roll around in the snow.

Then they beat each other's naked bodies with wet branches.
Huh. Scandinavia sounds fun....

Also? Vodka.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Booking trip to Scandinavia now. Do I need to bring my own wet branches?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I thought about the vodka and the saunas but it just doesn't seem enough. I understand why they drink so damn much of it, though.
And rolling around in the snow? Even after a sauna? Would not alleviate the bitter. Still. Snow.

Yeah, but then you run back into the sauna. That's (I think) the fun part.

I was in a sauna last week. I was disappointed that it was only 120F inside.
There were wet branches but I didn't try them....

I think that if you're going to get on a plane anyway, why not head closer to the Equator - for some actual sun and warmth and NO SNOW.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Giggling like a goose reading catchup this--oops, noon. Some of you are COMM'ed. Some of you are COMM'd twice.
Thanks for the birthday wishes. So far, so good. It's a high 50ish brilliantly sunny day here. Nature laughs at the winter olympics in BC, yes, she does. The committee should have considered the US midwest-to-east this winter.
I may ditch duty the rest of the day and go drive around looking at pretty trees and mountains and lakes and bays and, and, and. And maybe cake, later on.
BT, congrats very much, go you! Also? Laura's right. Ryan's all cute now, and good for him. When he climbs behind the wheel of a car? If you don't already suffer from insomnia, you suddenly learn the intimate realities of it. But that's years away yet. Enjoy your grinning little man standing on his own two feet. And for goodness sake, pictures, please!
Sending headache-begone vibes to smonster, and be-well vibes to anybody feeling sub-par. Trying valiantly to shoo sunbeams eastward, but the solar powers keep insisting they don't work that way.
ETA: Seska, go you on the one down. Forward, and excelsior!
