Come on Spring

Do you like winter? If you do, you can have mine. I listen to idiots and other relatives who harp about the joys of "the change of seasons" and they can keep them. I don't like cold weather and I never will. Of course, that means God and his infinite sense of humor has set me to live in one miserably cold State every year. I don't know why people live, honestly. I have built snow forts with my boys and I think that they are over rated. I have gone sledding and I don't get that either. Do people realize how cold and wet that mess is?? And please, don't get me started on the people who snow mobile. Now, I am cold, wet, and the wind chill is ratcheted up because I am going really really fast. How fun is that? When I start to get the seed catalogs, a little glimmer starts to build. I can almost concentrate and remember the warm weather. Almost. First, I have to get past all the sloppy weather, and the slush and nasty mess that comes with melting. Oh goody, mud. In the perfect world, I will never see cold weather again. I will live somewhere with my family that gets warm, gentle breezes all year and soft, caressing rains every once in a while. If I need a white Christmas (highly over rated, by the way) I'll watch the DVD. If I get my wish, I'll let you know. I pass on directions to my new place, and you can thank me later.
