Dammit, Winter, I am seriously about to break up with you and give all my season love to Autumn! It is negative 8 bazillion degrees out there with a negative 20 jillion degree wind chill, and no end in sight. Gus was all bundled up in snow pants this morning, but JEEBUS my thighs were about to shatter and slide right off my body by the time we walked the 4 blocks from the bus stop to school.
Here are the reasons why you suck, winter of 2006-2007:
1. All that 40 degrees and rain nonsense of December and early January. Forty degrees and rain does NO one ANY good whatsoever. It’s cold and wet and dreary and very much NOT snow (which we all know is cold and wet and fun!)
2. Now it is FINALLY cold enough to really be winter, but there is still NO SNOW. Except for tantalizingly small amounts like 1.5 inches on a Monday morning, prompting Gus to hopefully ask if there would be sledding after school? No, sweetie, I’m sorry, no sledding because THIS WINTER SUCKS! Thanks a lot, winter, for making my kid cry.
3. Blargh, I am too angry to think of any other reasons.
