It's still winter
Thursday, February 5, 2009
Yes, I know, I've been blogging with the regularity of someone who doesn't eat any fibre. My apologies. I've gotten way too caught up in my to-dos and find that my time spent on the computer has been surprisingly more effective than usual.
Yeah, I've been offline. A lot.
And I've also been feeling kind of stumped about what to write about on this blog. Sure, I can whine and complain about reality TV programming until the cows come home, but that might drive even someone like me crazy after a while.
Of course, it's my blog, so I can do whatever I want, right? Mwahahaha...
Seriously though, I'm sick of winter. And I really don't understand why Canadians even bother with Groundhog Day, since it'll be a total weather freakout if winter ever ends before April gets here.
Normally we celebrate April with one last snowstorm. Good times.
Being a writer, I could run off to a small tropical island and simply live life on the beach, coating myself with SPF 3000 sunblock and eating a lot of mangoes and coconuts. But I'm sure I'd find something to whine about there too. Like how the cabana boys are just too darn good looking and how my skin keeps falling off with the third-degree sunburns I keep on getting. LOL
I guess I could do something totally outrageous and try enjoying winter.
As if...
How about you? What's your secret to dealing with wintry weather?

It used to be booze ...
Seriously I am SO sick of winter.
We're having a meltdown here tomorrow, actually I feel good today. I think it's the sun filtering in through my window, a bird ... there's a bird tweeting somewhere.
I'm going out to get my hair done, something I haven't had done since September. That will make me feel better, my hair guy rocks.
Leah: Now that makes perfect sense!
Amy: Does your hair guy ever come to the Toronto area? I think Francesco needs some competition! (Oh, that's my hairdresser, not the cabana boy.)
And my word verification is "jelis." Coincidence? I think not. LOL
There's a lot of crying involved...
Actually, my job consists of spending a lot of time on the phone with Americans, who invariably ask about the Canadian winter. It's fun to milk it for pity.
Cavan: I was wondering why your eyes have been so puffy lately. LOL
I love it when folks drive up to the border in July with snowboards on their roof racks. ;)
That's one of the good things about being way down in Texas. I think once or twice we may have gotten below 40, but it's 80 right now and beautiful. :)
Just thought I'd share.
'Course, come summertime, I'll be fainting from heat exhaustion...
:::tries to mentally send a snowstorm to Texas:::
Oh Nicole, remind me to bug you about your electric bill from the A/C in July. LOL
