Winter is coming,
you can feel it in the air.
The days are dark so much earlier, and the cold weather makes you catch your breath first thing in the morning.
I hate winter.
Its cold, and dark and I HATE HATE HATE snow (its pretty, but its wet and dangerous to drive in, and not fun to shovel, and it makes the kids at work smell like wet dogs). Snow and I have an understanding–we don’t get along. I hate the isolating feeling of going to work in the dark and coming home in the dark. They layers of clothes and the steamed up glasses. The ice and freezing rain, the mess and the yuck. I don’t ski, snowshoe or toboggon. I hate skating and have never even petted a Husky dog–certainly not dog-sledded. (I’ve never been on a snowmobile–but that I would try, but maybe just once— but I will then complain about being cold and wet.)
Winter sucks. AND its coming our way!!!!!
Please stay away just a little longer, please don’t take the sun away from me, and make me bundle up. Please let me have summer back for just one more day before I have to face the cold, dark truth of winter.
