Plus, there's the added novelty of eating Shaq's head.

Every time I pop one in I feel so bad.
"Sorry Shaq, but your head is just too tasty to resist".
And he's doing such a friendly smile too...

I am simply shocked and dismayed that Romania let the Tate brothers leave and come to the US where I'm sure they will enjoy extradition protection from the Sexual Assaulter-In-Chief.

As someone who has constant issues with my car, I highly recommend getting a portable air compressor and car battery jump starter. Less than $40 each on Amazon and they’re incredibly easy to use and useful to have.

Thank you, Idaho, for reminding me so frequently what a miserable cultural wasteland you are. Two weeks, and my sentence is over, and I get to leave this hell froze over, and go back home. I say this every year, and every year I mean it even more intensely: here's hoping I never have to spend another winter in Idaho.

I’m in Maryland, and every winter (a season I hate with a passion) I joke “That’s it! I’m moving to Florida!” I’m cranky, in physical pain, and more depressed during the winter. I’m glad spring is just 18 days away.

I did this when I lived in Chicago. Fell on the ice on my way into my apartment, hit my head, and walked angrily up the stairs and I found a place to rent in Vegas that night. HATE cold weather! Stay warm, you got this!

I'm glad there are others out there who empathize. I'm a mountain guy, so six months of winter is just something I have to live with. I spend a lot of time during warmer months trying to make arrangements to go somewhere warmer and more coastal during winter, but four months is a big chunk of time, and plans always seem to fall through.

It's heavy man, I feel it where I'm at too. Probably not nearly as strong as you. But it's a heavy thing. And I even take SSRIs + vit D all Winter long, plus I use SAD lights to film with. There's something about that natural light, that you just can't beat though! It really does us a world of good!

Where I'm at has gotten a lot warmer and sunny the last decade, due to what I assume is likely Global warming, so it's way less intense here than it was before.

Sidenote; Interesting new stuff I learned from my PT about vit D and absorption recently.
1) Your supplement allegedly has to have vit K in it too, for your body to absorb the vit D properly.
2) You don't absorb it through glass or windows. So sitting in a sunroom, or by a window on a sunny day isn't as effective as actually getting out on a walk.

The lack of physical exercise is something that especially gets to me. I'm not the most gung-ho about exercise, but I love riding my bike, and I use a bike as a daily driver most of the year. Rain, shine, cold, or heat -- it doesn't matter, I love it. I have to put my bike in storage during my winter downtime, and I'm stuck indoors. I'll break out the kettle bell, and work up a sweat a few times a week, but it's not the same as just moving around and going places throughout a given day. On the bright side, I do get a whole lot of creative work done during the winter, but being so sedentary probably has the biggest impact on my well-being.
