    I guess I thought they were bad because my family members are allergic. Surprisingly in my frequent handling of various insects, the only bite/sting I have ever gotten was from a red ant that was hanging out on my shovel handle.

    Where did it bite you, Saint?

    Well, I'm going "camping". Apparently "camping" means staying in a climate-controlled RV 15 miles away next to another climate-controlled RV containing a bunch of people you can't stand. So see you guys later!

    Eff, Tam...that sucks :C Did they tell you what had happened?


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    Which do you think would involve less death: me going to the mall to get my winter coat today, or going to the mall to get my winter coat tomorrow? It's probably negligible, eh?

    This is all assuming, of course, that they'll still have Medium sizes left, of the coat I want.

    I don't know why, but this season has been especially bad for me in terms of clothing-in-my-size...because every single store seems to be out of everything in my size. This is why I had to get my shoes online!

    Wow good luck "camping".
    Apart from regular manly camping I once camped for half a year in our backyard when I was 7. Sadly I didn't get any headshots. Ughhhh

    Good news! Now "camping" consists of maybe going to the campsite and hanging out and then coming home. Woo!

    The place doesn't even let people in until 4:00, and sunset is at 5:15 or so. This was ill-conceived.

    Yes, northern Illinois winters are very very cold. I hate stepping outside, bundled to the extreme, and within 30 seconds feeling as though I am starting to turn into an icicle. It's painful.
    I know there are places with worse winters than ours, but they are not places I would ever, ever live. Especially as someone with virtually no body fat.

    I love harsh winters. I don't know why. There's just something about all that snow. I guess bad weather makes me feel vulnerable or something? It's hard to rationalize or describe.

    I think I can understand what you mean if you're talking about powerful weather - because I freakin' love that. Huge snowstorms, high winds, loud, insane thunderstorms...all that.

    But just...super-cold temperatures? No thanks.

    Did you grow up in Georgia, or just go to school there? If it's the former, that's probably why.

    I dunno how cold it gets in New England. Here in Iowa, we've had temperatures around 20 for the last week or so. Around January it'll fall below zero most days and our highs will be like ten degrees (I mean Fahrenheit for you folks across whichever pond)

    As far as I'm concerned, anything above freezing is tee shirt weather.

    e: A coworker of mine just purchased a ring so that he could propose to his girlfriend. It got me thinking about how I would do it, if I were in that situation. I had one idea all day that I thought was pretty cool. It involved using a hex editor to manipulate the text in his or her favorite game. To deliver the message during the course of play. That would be the most unexpected thing.
