All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I would believe that Montreal is often colder than Toronto. Detroit probably has temperatures similar to Toronto.

Looks like CJ officially got his car today. At least KCD's wife called to make sure I was ok with the whole thing. After it was a done deal for the most part. But I guess I had the opportunity to veto the thing.

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

Yeah, people kept telling me (laughing to themselves) "Oh, your first Michigan winter will be fun!" First off, why is this funny? Secondly...yeah, but no.

First off, why is this funny?

The suffering of others is always funny! cf., Moe poking Larry in the eyes.

Punishingly Intricate

I swear one year for Christmas parade (first weekend in December) it was in the 80s. My friend and I made frozen margaritas and took them up in plastic cups to watch the parade.

Not that we can promise unseasonable warmth!

It's a standard Midwestern hazing ritual practiced on anyone moving here from what we perceive to be a warmer climate.

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

I want a mini-pig.

That's almost like having a dog, right?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

It's been hovering around 100 for over two weeks. I'd like a spot of winter right now.

I'm pretty sick still... and having a cold in 100+ heat blows. Right now I'm on a Delsym in the PM, Mucinex in the morning kick. Not loving it.

I have been saying this for months. Desperately.

Have you seen this, Lee? [link] The downside is pigs are loud.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

First off, why is this funny?

Misery loves company because misery finds company freaking hilarious.
