Today [2]

Today was easy and boring, but no complaints considering that's rare for a Monday.

Damn that sounds good (the chicken part).

MWRed,

Summer! You have 3+ months of Winter yet.
Growing up in Minnesota and shoveling snow off baseball diamond after Easter just so we could was something I don't miss. Even had snow late into October while playing football.
Had 20+ below zero a few times and that was before the came up with the word
Wind Chill.

I've turned into a real woos complaining about 30+ degrees here in Northern Cal.:(

Yeah, I grew up on a farm, and the cold never bothered me. Then everything changed when I got a normal job and moved on from the farm.

Now I just hate it. Not so much the snow...I like snow, it's just the below zero temps that drive me nuts. Dealt with it long enough that i'm just sick of it I guess.

The Milky Way & Southern Cross, various planets & twinkling stars all resplendent above.

Sounds lovely! Now compare it with mine:

9:19am Biology revision involved complete boredom.
I look out my window to see rain and grey sky as far as the eye can see.
Forecast 10C (50F) and probably more rain. Yay!

I know which one I'd choose ;)
