The one where I use too much profanity

Blah.

That is how I feel.  Seriously, I’m so tired of winter and cold weather and wind whipping my hair into knots and slapping me in the face with its rude abrasiveness.  I am SO.OVER.IT.  As I crossed the street this morning into my building where I work, I thought to myself “Fuck you, February.  FUCK YOU.”

February is such a bust.  Yeah, there’s Valentine’s Day, and even my birthday, but then what?  I never did hear what happened with the Ground Hog, but I’m assuming that furry little motherfucker saw his shadow and ran back into his hole for another 6 long ass weeks of winter.

I’ve got the winter blues.  The hum-drum doldrums.  It’s depressing.  I feel as though I’ve got nothing to look forward to.  Last Saturday was a blessing that allowed me to wear my flip flops (!) all day long, and enjoy sunshine and warm air on my face.  But now…now winter has decided to just screw with me and make me a grumpy bitch.

It’s not just the weather though.  B is in a mood.  He’s been in a mood for days.  Maybe he’s annoyed with the winter too.  We have been nitpicking with each other over stupid things for the last few days.  Last night was great, but we’re both so exhausted that we don’t have the energy to do more than snuggle under a blanket and watch tv.  My birthday was so utterly depressing.  This Saturday will hopefully make up for it when me, B, and some of our closest friends get together for dinner and drinks and hanging out.  Let’s hope so.

How are you all coping with this crap-tastic weather?

    How am I coping with the weather… Hmmm. Oh yeah, I moved to California haha. ;)

    ps- this is hilarious: “but I’m assuming that furry little motherfucker saw his shadow “

    I know being in California I should be the last person complaining. But I really want the beach excursions to start already.

    Staying in bed. Or going to boyfriends and getting into his bed. I hate winter.

    HORRIBLE! I jsut wrote a rant about it on my blog. fckkkk winter!

    Yeah, being in California does help but even here it gets (somewhat) cold and gray! I think cuddling in bed is the best solution.

    Well this time last year I lived in Norway, cold ass country and I bitched all the time, so I moved back to Bangkok where I can complain about the heat. Thats how I deal, move continents. Come on over to Asia everyone!

    Not coping so well. Blah, I hate this time of year.

    Hope there are some sunshiney days ahead for you!

    It’s soooo hard to get rid of the winter blahs – especially with this past winter, where we’ve had *twelve* percent of the usual sunlight! This past weekend was pretty nice here in Chicago, but I canNOT wait for spring….

    I am sorry you have the winter blues – I went thorugh that in Jan and early Feb and am gratefully coming out of it…I hope that your weekend was better and that you enjoyed yourself with B and friends..
