26. Oh yeah!
I have an actor friend who travels from Toronto to Vancouver to LA to NYC. Personally, I'd stay in BC if I were him.

31. You would need to cook for me
and do my laundry.

Oh, and make me, extra dry Martinis. You can have one too. Then, I feel it would be wrong not to let you use your 'special skills.'

36. It is 7 degrees F out here right now. And it's supposed to get colder.
I would say it's colder than the mammary glands of a cariacature of an adherent of a marginalized religion...but that would be sexist and disrespectful.

It's fucking cold. How about that?

To put this in perspective -- I am actually grateful for the even-odd parking putting me on side of the street closer to the door this evening. We're talking one narrow residential street.

Tomorrow's gonna suck.
