38 is quite a bit warmer than 12.

Hah, good point. I don't think I'd know what to do if it was 12 out. Also Andy Milonakis was not on the man show, so I saw we should kill him. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1299759/

Well I was totally wrong when I said I had permanently switched to Opera. I don't know why I keep fooling myself, I've tried using Opera before. I seriously just felt better when I started using Firefox again. Like, clicking on it in the task bar felt more "solid" or something.

Also, I discovered a really useful about:config modification that makes pages load really fuhreakin' fast.

Oh and also, as for the breaking up thing, I think it's going to be alright. She doesn't seem to be in any danger of hurting herself, although she called me claiming that her anxiety has come back and that she wants to get tested for AIDS (seriously, don't ask). This isn't the first time we've broken up, either. Or the second. But it will definitely be the last.

I feel way better though. Hooray for me.

P.S. I just rented a movie called Ice Spiders. I'll let you know how it is.

EDIT: I saw the teaser for this movie a while ago, but apparently it's coming out this month. It's called Cloverfield and it looks quite interesting.

It was about 38 last night here, this weird front just came in after it's been 75ish all threw December.

Yeah, god, it was 30 this morning. It was ridiculously cold.

HOLY GOD.

My mom ended up getting me some Afrin nasal spray.  I used it and HOLY FUCK.  Anyone use Vicks Vaporub or something similar to that?  Picture squirting that in your nasal cavity; that's seriously what this stuff reminds me of.  I had a nice burning sensation in my nose for the next five minutes and my eyes kept tearing up.

On the bright side, I can breathe through my nose right now.  Quite well, even.

 Oh man. I totally forgot that was coming out this month. I've been following it since they released the trailer with the transformers movie. I'm surprised they've kept so much of the story, like what the monster is, under wraps for so long. I'll definitely go and see it when it comes out.

Bah, you guys are whining about nothing, around here we don't call it cold (like, seriously cold) unless it's -20 (-4F). Most winter averages between 0 and -15 (32 - 5F). And when it's 0, I can go outside without a coat. And I'm one of those Canadians who hates the cold.
This is going in my sig. :)

Damn, Killer 7 is full of brick shitting moments. Probably the scariest game I've played in a long while.

Most winter averages between 0 and -15 (32 - 5F).

That's Ohio's winter average...

We usually drop below 0F at least once per year, just to make things painful.

Wait, uh, did I miss something? Why were you back in Ohio for a while? And why are you going down to Florida for school?

I went back to Ohio to get my car fixed up (the exhaust pipe split...fun), and for the holidays.  I stayed here for a while to try to get a job somewhere since I was having approximately zero luck in Maryland.

I'm going down to Florida for training on my new job with Nielsen Media.  Should be interesting.

Yeah, if you use too much Afrin, you essentially destroy your sinuses. Plus, if you use it for more than two or three days you get 'addicted' to it, and actually suffer rebound congestion because you've damaged your sinuses enough for them to swell up even without you being sick/having allergies.

Horror stories about that stuff aside, it's essentially a miracle drug when it comes to congestion. If you get a cold, use that, you'll be able to breathe normally for 12+ hours on a single dose easily.

Well, last I checked Ohio isn't all that far south, either...

Doesn't surprise me at all considering how badly it burns when you first spray it.

As for the addiction thing, I don't think I've really been using it enough for my system to become dependent on it.  I've mainly been depending on Sudafed to keep my head clear while I sleep; it's always worked quite well for me.

Truth.

Well, last I checked Ohio isn't all that far south, either...

Not at all -- the only thing separating Ohio from Canada is Lake Erie, I believe.

I'm also only an hour and a half away from Ashtabula -- one of the north-most points of the state -- so it's no wonder we get the same weather as Canadia. :P
