harsh cold starts: how bad?

My car (1995 9K Aero, automatic, 136K miles) doesn't like cold morning starts. The start is terribly sluggish, the idle is rough, the tach revs high. It's like driving a rock for the first few miles even after a short warm-up. How bad is this?
Everyone in the world tells me that I don't need a block heater. But I have outdoor parking only, and it makes me wince on every cold morning to hear that poor thing trying to turn over when it's 8 degrees out.
