Though I may originally hail from the Great White North known as Connecticut, I am not a winter person by any stretch of the imagination. The Phaeton, which was washed a week ago, is caked in road salt. The Galant often declines to start in below-freezing temps, and the washer fluid stalk is broken, so I can't wash the salt grime off of my windshield. No one shows up to Cars and Coffee when it's this cold. My mood has become as gray as the perpetually-cloudy sky, and my friends have all come down with a case of the "fuck-its," where all they want to do is stay at home and hibernate until April.
I dunno, maybe I have that seasonal affective disorder that people talk about. But more likely, I think that winter just plain sucks.

Apparently "Blue Monday" is a real thing. NBC 4 said so this morning. Fuckers.

You could always pop over to Lindsay VW on your lunch and have a smoke with me, haha. We also just got traded in a 2012 Golf R Stage 1, which is pretty fun to drive...

I am a much happier person since moving from MI to NC several years ago.

Solution: buy a snowmobile

I'd suggest escaping to the South, but it's supposed to be 3F tonight at my house in North Georgia.
At least we don't have too much snow!

I imagine your feet get pretty cold. Move to Austin—it will be 70 by the end of the week (though it's 24 right now).

Please describe your photo to me.
I can't see it.

I only smoke tires, I'm afraid. :)

My friend did just that. This is the result on his first ride:
And no, he is not the one on the gray snowmobile.

I can't see it, either. But it's an old picture of my car buried in snow.
I haven't been able to see images in Oppo since Christmas. :(

A snowmobiling fail. He wasn't watching where the trail was and fell through some lighter snow that looked solid. Got himself stuck and almost flipped it or something. He is being vague on details.

Looks like he hit a snow sink hole or something, haha. Poor guy.

I've resorted to wearing *gasp* shoes. Or as I call them, foot-prisons.

All thumbnails on oppo are provided by the new hosting service. You can click on "expand" and it will show you the gawkerasset URL.
All thumbnails on the front page are normal.
Fucking sucks.

Winter's not usually that bad here, I think. A few days of snow but that's kind of it. Was that pic in 2009, by any chance? That's the last time I remember having more than a few inches of snow at any time.
If you're up for something, hibernation is definitely not for me, so I am down.

Yes, that pic is from 2009. The car lives in a garage now, thankfully.
Sure, let me know if you're up for something. I would say Cars and Coffee, but it barely happens at all this time of year. Not really worth standing in the frigid air at 7:00 AM just to see an FR-S and a couple of Audis.

That'd work too! Maybe once the ice has melted off a bit more, though.

Well, temps are supposed to be in the 50s again this weekend so C&C should be an option, right?

In that case, yes. My car is salty, but I'll bring it.
