WINTER!

Can you believe it?! I thought I would be happier then this, since I had just about begged for snow a couple weeks ago, whining and bitching about how it was still warm and I wasn’t feeling “into” Christmas yet, yadda, yadda, yadda. Boy, was a grateful for the snow this morning while I was scrapping the window with my AirMiles card because Mike had both scrappers in his car. Please, note the sarcasm. And note it well.
As I stood outside scrapping with this little credit card sized points card I cursed him repeatedly for having my damn scrapper and then thought about how I had whined and cried that it wasn’t feeling like Christmas because of the lack of snow and the seemingly beautiful weather that I was so naive to believe would be here until Christmas morning.
Please, tell me… what the fuck was I thinking? I hate snow. I’ve hated winter weather since the day I started working. Since I do a lot of work outside, it’s anything but appealing in temperature falling less then 0 degrees (that’s 32F for you my American friends).
What is so great about slipping sliding on the roads? Praying that the moron tailgating you is paying just enough attention that when you’re forced to hit the brakes he will realize that he too has to stop. Hmmm? What? What’s so great about that?
I was almost that moron this morning. Minus the tailgating, on the cell phone pay attention part. I was fully aware; aware that the turning lane I was entering was solid ice and I was. not. stopping. Luckily I was able to cut across the opposing lanes of traffic into a parking lot before I hit the median and person in front of me. I am anticipating a fun filled season of winter driving.

Get ready for the rants. They will be coming. Oh, they will be coming.

Did I mention that it’s supposed to be cold with snow again tomorrow? Did I mention that I have to be out on a construction site for the morning freezing my ohsonotreadyforthis ass off? I can’t wait. I. can’t. fucking. wait.
