Ahhh! Winter! I want to hollar at you, but at the moment I can barely manage a whisper. That's what I get for bragging about my health lat week. Right now I'm miserably coughing and unable to communicate vocally with the world around me. But that's what this blog is for, right? Nonverbal communication.
Right now, as I sit in silent and chilly frustration, all I can think about is bare arms, mini skirts, wide brimmed hats, flowers, and sunshine. Sigh.
Whenever I walk around our alienated University campus, I try to remember back in September when friends lounged on the paved stairs or smoked cigarettes while sprawling across the lawn. I know it sounds like I'm in mourning, but in truth, I think I am. And I'm not quite sure how long I will survive. Anybody else suffering out there? Hurry back, Spring!

Oh, I'm feeling your pain! Maybe some cinnamon tea and a cosy blanket can keep you warm till spring. Hang in there!

Living in Ireland, I feel like this for the majority of my life. We get about two weeks of sunshine (exam time, of course) and then its back to miserable weather. I totally feel your pain. When can I start wearing floral dresses without freezing my bum off? :(

That's awesome! Not that you're sick, I hope you feel better soon, but about the tattoo. What is it? And who did it, if you don't mind me asking.

Oh! You should move to Vancouver, because here it's been a lotta sunny lately, and they're wondering if we'll even have snow for the Olympics. lol. :) Not quite shorts-and-hats weather, though - but soon!!

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well....
I love snow...it makes everything look clean & pretty...it helps me to appreciate the summer heat too!
Hang in there! Spring will be here sooner than you know it!
: )
For now, just snuggle down under some warm blankets, watch some good TCM & drink some delicious warm drinks.

Ugh! I wish winter was over! My town was hit with 28.5" of snow and tonight we are expecting between 12-20"! Looking at your pictures makes me pine for warmer days. Hope you feel better soon.
