Weather! | 28 January 2009

Okay, seriously. Patience is now rolled out in a very thin layer upon the bed of my nerves, and the pink wiggly parts are about to start showing through and raising hell. What is with all this snow? I thought last winter that it snowed a lot, and I thought last summer that it rained a lot, but this! This is a simply unneccessarily relentless barrage of precipitation. Where is it all coming from? What regions are suffering drought now, having given up and sent all their water and clouds and pressure systems up our way? What butterfly on the other side of the earth keeps flapping its wings, sending us these snowfalls again and again? There are new snowbanks on top of the old dirty snowbanks now to climb. Old salt and new salt combine, both buried uselessly under the drifts on the sidewalks. I can never stomp hard enough to clear the treads of my boots.

I received a text message this morning from someone whom I didn’t even know had my cell number, and all it said was: “Weather!!!!!”
