It's been snowing all morning. Say it with me, folks -- WTF?
Don't get me wrong. I love snow. I actually don't bitch about winter the way everyone else does (until May hits and it's still freezing outside). Gloves, scarves, layers, thick wool thigh-high socks -- I'm all for it.
But it's October in Chicago. Right now is the time for fall jackets, orange-and-red trees, brisk walks with leaves crunching underfoot, and all those other lovely moments of autumn. I want to enjoy the proper season at the proper time. Let's leave the blizzards for January, kay?
(Oh, and my girlfriend and I got back together. It's... complicated, but we're lesbians and we're desperately in love and we're both getting help for our individual issues and doing our damndest to make this work because, as we've decided, not being together just sucks.)

Good to hear that you're back together with your honey!
I'm so not ready for winter yet. Dirty snow, slush, wet feet. No thanks!
Now, put me in the middle of nowhere with a snowboard and no people.....and now we're talkin.....
