[Frumple]

Driving around with the windows down at ~50F is just... blissful. Feels so good~

That is all. Other than it looks like we might finally get a full week under 60F. Frumple is in Frumple's happy temperature place. For a week anyway. Maybe even two! Christmas come late, that.

[RedWarrior0]

Where, exactly, are you? Because you seem to lack snow, probably.

[Descan]

Frumpy is in Florida. :3

I got a great pair of mittens for Christmas. Black with rainbow stripes. And a scarf and hat to match. The scarf and hat are hand knit by my mum.

[Thecard]

Yeah, for Christmas I basically got a sweetass camera, several Bibles and Bible references, and flannel shirts.

This was a good year.

[Pnx]

According to someone I know that had surgery, the painkillers he took (morphine?) made him still feel pain, but he just no longer gave a damn.

Pretty common reaction, they don't actually stop you feeling pain, they just stop certain receptors responsible for making you react to pain. They also have a bunch of other effects, like sometimes they give you amnesia, or inhibit fight or flight instincts, which is what makes them so great for surgical procedures. A lot of people don't notice the pain they're feeling or forget about having felt pain though.

On the other hand, morphine withdrawal.
I am pretty sure that it sucks.

HEINOUSSTUCKKKKKKK.

Let me direct you to most recent page!
TENDRILLLSSSSSSSSSSSS.

[Darvi]

I was wonderin how long it would take for somebody to mention that.

[Slayerhero90]

It combines all of my favorite things!

[Darvi]

Puberty and lovecraftian transformations?

[Graknorke]

I didn't think it would ever update again.
Now I am happy.My heart has so many boners for this.

As Descan said, heh. Actually, in my greater than two decades of life, I have seen snow in person precisely twice.

And one of those times was at the Grand Canyon.

It doesn't snow in North Florida. It just... doesn't. Grass gets frosted over occasionally, but... snow? If that ever actually happened we'd have people running around thinking the world is ending because the sky is falling or some such crazy nonsense.

And you hear that, Nature, Murphey? I'm taunting you. Bring the blizzard, yeh bastards. And I don't meant the ice cream desert thingy.

... though that falling from the sky would be an acceptable compromise.

[Flying Dice]

Snow is part of what makes the cold worth it.

[kaijyuu]

There's a foot of snow outside right now.

Those who like snow haven't done the following:
1) Shoveled it.
2) Driven in excessive amounts of it.
3) Had cold, wet feet from melted snow seeping into their shoes.
4) Walked through a blizzard being chilled to the bone.


It's not all snowmen and snow forts, people.

Just recently remembered a fun thing I can do with my new smartphone. Considering it has a GPS on it, I can go and do some Geocaching.

Now I wonder if any caches I find in my town will contain med-paks, vodka, energy drinks, bandages, and ammo? If I'm lucky, I might find myself a disk-one nuke of a device, weapon, grenades, or armor. ...Or maybe a notepad I can sign my name in showing that someone else also found it.
