To each his own. To me my own.

Winter

Is it Springtime yet?

I’ve already grown weary of winter. Winter months are hard, and those who know me already know I’m not a fan of anything difficult.

If you’re still reading this, you’re probably aware that this will be a rant post. Hey, we all need one now and then. With that said, I’ll proceed to touch on a few of the reasons why I abhor hate dislike the season.

  • All the extra required clothing, resulting in more laundry. Additionally, more clothes give the illusion of more pounds. Hate.
  • I must wear socks. I hate socks. More importantly, my feet hate socks. And any accompanying enclosed shoes.
  • Staying up longer at night to make sure that last log is in fact extinguished results in Bon getting less sleep. This is not a good thing.
  • Everything looks bare naked and dead. That’s because it is. For several months.
  • My car is happy in cool weather – but hates freezing temperatures. It’s not unusual for my key locks and/or door jams to freeze, resulting in me being late for work.
  • Lotion up. Now, lotion up once more. Wait, we’re not done here – dammit the lotion bottle’s empty again.
  • Dear Sun, how I adore thee. But alas, our time together seems to have been cut in half. I am pale. I mean like Edward Cullen pale. The forecast calls for even more pale.

When torrential rain gets thrown into the mix (over three-inches-expected-in-one-day torrential) it turns from aggravating to disastrous. Like when you let your puppy out to poo and he decides to find a hidden spot in the yard to dig while in said torrential rain.

Yep, I’ll be late for work again.
