The regular season was supposed to open on my birthday.  What more could a girl ask for, right?  Now I’ll probably have to go to Old Country Buffet or some shit because I’m in my pajamas and can’t stop crying.

I am ditched at the altar, middle of the road, drunk Joan Cusack from In & Out distraught right now.  Just replace the “heterosexual” with “hockey game” and the dress with a jersey.  Everything else in this scene accurately expresses my emotions.  (If you’ve never seen this movie, now you have plenty of time.)

“I’m more miserable than ever and I’m a mess and I’m starving.”

Watch the clip where Howard says he can’t marry her and she loses it.  Also me.

    Make sure you have time to shower and vomit. Also I’m totally buying you a gift card for Old Country Buffet for your birthday.

    Oh, Pants. Your birthday? Of all days? That is my nightmare. I, too, am lost and broken, but your BIRTHDAY?! You couldn’t script something so cruel.
