Notice: Function amp_is_available was called incorrectly. `amp_is_available()` (or `amp_is_request()`, formerly `is_amp_endpoint()`) was called too early and so it will not work properly. WordPress is not currently doing any hook. Calling this function before the `wp` action means it will not have access to `WP_Query` and the queried object to determine if it is an AMP response, thus neither the `amp_skip_post()` filter nor the AMP enabled toggle will be considered.

It is going to help when I am thinking about going to Grand Prairie 18 in Peoria! I am from Trenton, NJ so I am not familiar with Peoria. Next time I see my family will be so much better! Wonderful!

Also LOVE Breath Right strips. I like the clear ones though, because then the BF doesn’t laugh quite so much at my goofy sleeping appearance. 🙂

I have had more mishaps on ice than I care to admit. I will say I can do a mean 780 on the Interstate. I have experience with that…on black ice, in sub-zero weather. 🙂

You, sir, get a thumbs up for the new comment system, though!

Glad you managed to develop a new “spin” on things after your (mis)adventure!
Hope you survive your homecoming…

I hated your old one and eventually stopped commenting because of it. So you were right!)

I hate driving in the snow! Especially in my piece of shit ’98 Camry, which only has front-wheel drive even though I live in RI (also known as the Tundra).

Sort-of related… I was taught how to drive in water/ice skids by Nascar race car drivers. I’m not kidding. It was the scariest day of my life. They re-created terrifying weather scenarios and then had us practice going through skids ON PURPOSE. It wasn’t that bad when you were the one driving but, holy crap, it was peeing-in-your-pants scary when you were in the backseat while another crazy teenager took the wheel.

Didn’t you grow up in the midwest? I’m pretty sure I went through these death defying spins for the first time when I was 16 and then brought them on myself for many masculine years afterwards. Makes me wonder though how Thais would deal with snow…they can barely drive in the sunshine haha. Really they can’t. It sucks. Oh and now I want Ambien 🙂 Nice story and I’m glad you made it home safely.
