Like you said yesterday, having an interesting job can make a world of difference, and I don't.


* I'd actually like to apend that list with:
- strip clubs
- buffalo chicken
- ribs
- NFL

I had a similar idea, but mine was get a warm Boddingtons, put on some extra insulated clothing and sit out on the deck next to the frozen swimming pool in the 20 f temp.
