Not Again

I posted something yesterday about how there was a little bit of snow during my morning commute and how snow in April sucks the big one.

I have been in meetings all morning today. Back to back to back, one after the other. Woah, that’s a lot of meetings. At a few minutes after noon I was listening in to the third meeting in the string and something caught my eye outside of the window. I was on a video conference so I didn’t want to stare at the goings on outside so I took the briefest of glances.

It was snowing like a freakin’ blizzard. Oh, fer cryin’ out loud. What the hell, mother nature?

It didn’t last long. I took a second side-eye glance about 20 minutes later and there was still some snow falling but it was much lighter. 15 minutes after that the meeting ended and the snow had slowed down to a few random flakes.

All in all this past winter was not that bad. It was very cold, and February had a ton of snow. Outside of that, it could have been much worse. Why then are we having to deal with snow falling on both the seventh and eighth of April. It is most definitely not winter any longer. At least it isn’t sticking but still… come on. Enough is enough. I want my spring to look and feel like spring.

Winter, go home. Your mother nature is calling you. Jerk.

It is Snowing

When I went to bed an hour ago it was not snowing yet. I just got up for a minute and looked outside and it’s snowing like crazy and we already may have a couple of inches.

Lovely (he said, dripping with sarcasm).

During our week in Florida it snowed twice. In the eight days we’ve been back it has snowed twice more. The last time I looked at a forecast for this coming week it said it was going to snow more or less every other day.

Do you think mother nature is exacting some kind of asshole revenge on us for going to a warmer location on our vacation?

I think so. Mother nature is a prick.

Mother Nature’s Revenge

If you live in New England like I do, you may want to not look at the weather forecast.

Wendesday… snow.

Thursday… snow.

We’re going to get a Nor’easter… in April.

Damn it, Mother Nature. Why must you be such an insufferable asshole? Really. What a jerk!

It’s still a couple of days away at least, so maybe the forecast will change or turn out to be completely wrong. Maybe we won’t get snow after all. I’m not betting on it. If winter is going to give spring one last kick in the nards, it’ll be like this.

Good thing I didn’t already plant my peanuts!*


*I haven’t written a post about it for months, but I am still planning on trying to grow some peanuts this year. I am an idiot and this is the proof.

Oh Good, Snow

Last night when I came home from work there was a lot of ice on the driveway. I told myself to get up early today to put out some rock salt before Jen, my love, left for work. Imagine my surprise when there was an inch or so of snow. I was like… really? You are such an asshole, mother nature.

I Got Nuttin’

I live in New England. I love it here. Unfortunately the rain seems to love it here too because it has rained every day this week and the forecast is calling for rain every day next week too. It is putting me into a “mood”. Jen feels like she’s catching a cold. I am either catching a cold or developing allergies. The kids are fine, they’re on summer vacation so rain or shine it’s paradise for them. I have been getting too little sleep every night this week. I’m tired and sore and feeling run down.

But it’s Friday.

We have no set plans for the weekend. The kids want to go see Monsters University, and Jen and I want to take them. I don’t know when that will happen, but it will happen at some point. Other than that? No clue. The house needs some cleaning and there is tons of laundry, as usual. The lawn is getting long again, but rain every day will screw that plan. I could use a haircut but I’m not worried about it.

Cook out? Rain. urgh.

I am so sick of rain. I want some sunshine and happiness. It’s like, mother nature can’t screw us over with snow because it’s too warm, so she’s screwing us over with rain. She pisses me off sometimes.
