For the last two days I had been hearing the weather man talk about a snowstorm that was going to cover about one-third of Wisconsin. Including my county. This is the first real snow we've had this season. Then he talked about heavy winds that were going to make the situation much worse. I figured nothing like that was going to happen, because our weather men have a tendency to be wrong.
Last night at about 10:00 pm, it started raining here. By midnight, it was snowing, but it melted when it hit the ground. On my way home from the bar, I saw a couple of my friends who had put their cars in the ditch. The road had a layer of slush and it was pretty thick stuff.
I woke up today at noon, and looked out the window. My whole yard is covered in a blanket of dandruff. I went outside to get the mail, and stepped out the front door into a drift about a foot deep.
I got snow in my tennis shoes, and now my socks are all wet. I'm getting cabin fever right now... I don't wanna go outside and do anything, but I do wanna go somewhere. I can't drive right now because the plows still haven't been through.
Which brings me to my point. I think winter really sucks! It's not so bad if it's a winter like the one we had the year I was born, or the winter we had when I was 15... green. No snow, because of that El Nino bullcrap. I can't wait until I'm 30.
I love summer. It's warm, the sun is shining. You can go for a drive, you can go and ride your motorcycle, four-wheeler (or what have you). You can go swimming. You can go to a party with your friends. The only thing you really have to worry about is heavy rain. If I had the money, and I didn't have anything to worry about here in Wisconsin, I would move south. Far south, where it never snows (away from the earthquake and hurricane zones).
But winter... It sucks because, you can't drive anywhere without the risk of putting your car in a ditch (especially if you have balding tires on your car). You can't go outside and do anything, 'cuz it's too damn cold. Me, personally, I think winter is depressing. Every time I look out the window, this feeling of dread sweeps over me.
I swear, if I lived any farther north, I would go insane.
Any one else out there get buried in the white stuff, and feel like venting their frustration? I would actually like to see how many people feel like I do.

I wanted to at least be able to do something nice for her to show her I love her, so here's what I want from you...
Do you know how L-L-L-O-O-O-N-N-N-G-G-G these last few months have been?
either I'm about to hit the bottle, the bong, or someone's face... unless I can vent a little...
