What on earth is this 'snow' stuff?
I think I once waded through a couple of centimeters of snow once, around 4 years ago. I'm from the California coast, we're starved of pretty much any precipitation here (yes, the occasional shower will not itself fix a catastrophic drought).
really, the only time the white flakes fall anywhere near my town, is every few years, if certain conditions unknown to me are met then maybe, we will get a few flakes up on the mountains. even then they're more transient than nothing, they vanish within a day or two. last time i can pinpoint exactly is the winter of 2008-2009, but there may have been some more recently, further back north maybe. the san gabriel mountains 100 miles-ish to the south, in LA are snowed more often.
^santa ynez mountains. they provide a dramatic enough backdrop to the city even without any snow.
so, no, i am not 'sick' of it by any means. i wish i could receive truckloads of snow and have them dumped in my yard, and i would try my best to make a certain tiger and blonde boy proud.
already i'm finding myself wearing thinner clothes. i can't wear gloves all day anymore (not comfortably, anyway). i want to be able so sit at the kitchen table in the early morning, streets illuminated by cold artificial lights and watch the flakes gently float down to earth. hot chocolate too....yeah, i know i'm romanticizing. i just want snow for one day, damnit! sun sun sun gets old pretty damn fast!
it is too soon.
