I hate that it is snowing

I live in SoCal. What's this "snow" everybody's always talking about?
Suddenly I find myself content with clouds and temps in the 50s.
My poor cat is really confused by it.She's been shedding her winter coat and now she's looking around as if to say, "Oh, shit. Too soon!"
I hate snow with a passion.June snow? I'm glad I'm not you cause the hate would have to be taken to a whole nother level.
Trust me, it just keeps getting worse.The trees, which were bare all winter, now have leaves.
Leaves = surface area = extra weight = falling branches.
Falling on cars in driveways, falling on power and phone lines, falling in the road etc.
This is by no means a disaster, many other people are experiencing far worse effects due to the weather, but it is still a pisser.
I am so sorry. Doesn't Grenada sound really good to you right now?and Dave......trust me, you don't wanna know this "snow" stuff. Just appreciate your beach a little more. Actually, your waters are too frikkin cold.
Snow: n. White fluffy punishment from the heavens often accompanied by painfully frozen noses and foreheads, slips and falls right onto your buttocks in front of your fellow college attendees, wind factors that require walking backwards and hearing snarky comments like "you're walking the wrong way", the wearing of 3 pairs of pants cause you're from Florida and you didn't know there is a required part of northern wardrobe called legwarmers, and strange facial expressions cause it's May, freezing cold, and yet you see people wearing shorts and playing volleyball while you're in a full winter coat holding tightly to your lapel.
Thanks for the kind thoughts, Carlie!I have a little private beach in my head for days like this.
Being fishbelly white, I am under a large umbrella on this beach, but I have a cooler of Negra Modelo, a stack of unread Harper's magazines and a fully loaded iPod with me.
Ahhhhh......
That's right Tesse, go to your happy place.
I beg to differ.And I beg to add : Beach is awesome no matter what month.
And, snow is awesome when it's on tv.
Unless you get a snowday off work... that would be pretty awesome, too.
fine, Miami beach is awesome, no matter what.
The little bitch kicked me out of her club! I never once said anything mean to those snot-nosed wannabes! And noone kicked them out of ours. I hope most of the little ones realize what a bitch she is and don't bother.
Wow, I made someone angry :)Poor Carlie.
no i'm not but I thought the group was cute and I was not one of those hating on the littlest ones. And it was public.But you know what, I can take consolation in the fact that our moderators didn't discriminate aginst anyone based on age. I guess that's adult behavior not to be expected from the little ones.
Hilary, there is a announcements section on THC.Do you want to move your comment there since it has nothing to do with this post?
Snow post damn it. Not the lil' haters group birthday post.
Crap.
Just to be explicit, this is not because of your age, all voices are welcome as long as they are comfortable with critique and comment on the content of their post.
If you had posted the inception of a Haruki Murakami (who I enjoy) or a vegetarian cookbook appreciation club I would still have objections because there is a place for announcements and this ain't it.
Get outta my post!
So, Tesse, is it still snowing in Pullman? Here on the other side of the Cascades they are promising some sun tomorrow. But they've promised that before...
It's now snain, making it very slushy on the ground out here.Ordinarily, I love snow.
I grew up in areas where snow did not happen so it is still a treat from me to have a winter that is discernible from any of the other seasons.
However...JUNE!!!!
Tesse, that's absolute crap!Heard that Snoqualmie got a ton a snow today too.
I'll go with what Jackie said - now I don't feel so bad about the 50 degrees here in Seattle.
What happened here? Have posts been deleted? I'm confused. But it sucks that it's snowing on you in June, Tesse. Spring sucks.
good god, i will trade you. it's already in the mid 90's here, with ridiculous humidity (yesterday, when i was heading out to work at 8 am, my glasses fogged up as soon as i stepped outside. just like they do if i open the dishwasher too soon after it's finished. yes, it feels like living in a dishwasher outside. complete with freak violent thunder storms and sickly warm rain). MID FREAKING 90s! in june. i'm fairly certain that i will be half melted come august. i would kill for some snow.
Is anybody actually happy wth their weather?my main issue here is that it's my kind of weather outside (I love humididiy and the 90s feel just right) but at school, I'm actually wearing a winter jacket inside because the ac is set to 70. It's crazy. Why dont all the 70s people just live somewhere where it's 70s and let the people who like the 90s enjoy the 90s instead of making it so cold inside. I's ridiculous that its all nice and tropical outside my window while I'm in a winter coat.
Carlie, i hate that about A/C, too. It's always set too low for me. I always wear sweaters at work, even in the summer.
This summer for the first two weeks we were in a basement classroom. I think the building admins turned on the AC and then forgot to adjust the temperature in the cement holes underground. Seriously felt like trying to learn inside a deep-freeze cooler. I loathe A/C. Someone recently commented that they hate people who hate A/C. That's me. I think it's unnatural and evil. My personal version of hell involves piped in refrigerated air and fluorescent lighting.
Sally, I deleted Hilary's ad for the Junior Haters Club because I was peeved that she was spamming threads with her announcement.Sorry for the disruption in continuity.
I hate AC but was grateful for it when I lived in Texas despite the fact that it was set drastically low.
Nip factor of 100% while indoors, not cool.
hahahha, totally! Once I forgot to put on a bra and had some chafey sweatshirt on. When I got home that night it felt like what I imagine a new mother or milk cow might often experience.
Yep.Funky smell, too.
The air, not the nipples.
Well, the 90s is waaaay too hot for the indoors, Carlie! That does need a/c. But to 70? Yeah, hate a/c except when it's set to a reasonable temperature after coming in from the 90 degree weather.Finally broke down and got out the wool peacoat again, decided that it didn't matter it was June, is WAS cold outside. About to crank on the heat. Again.
At this point I'd love it to be so hot I wished I had a/c.
it's been in the triple digits pretty consistently for the past week and a half or so, but we have yet to turn on our A/C here. i live through a combination of being permanently crouched next to a fan, especially here in the computer room, and making frequent trips to our apartment's pool to cool down during the day. i'm finding that i'm liking these methods a lot more than i did being in a 70 degree office all day, that 30 degree temperature difference had me sick in the middle of july last year.
I dont get it how our temp is 98.6 but some people (not me) dont like the ambient temp that high.
An ambient temp of 98 is way too hot for me. Yikes! If my house gets above low 80s I'm miserable. Mid to high 70s = perfect.
wow, so that explains a lot. personally, i LOOOOOOVE A/C. i would keep it at 68 degrees everywhere forever if i could. but i get headaches and vertigo from too much heat/humidity (i once attempted to live in a A/Cless apartment during the summer in baltimore when i was interning... i ended up pretty much living at work because i felt so sick at home all the time), so if i'm going to need to function like at all, i need it to be cool. i know, i'm a freak.i just solve the hot/cold/hot/cold issue by not going outside during the day any more than i absolutely have to. as for liking the weather ever, i find october in the midwest to be absolutely perfect in almost every way. very little rain, temperatures between the low 50s to high 60s, almost no humidity to speak of. plus, it always smells like dead leaves and cookies for some reason, and i love it. i also love winter (except for when it rains instead of snows, because it seems like such a waste of precipitation). it's just may through august that i despise.
what a wonderfully diverse world we live in! So those cold loving people aren't trying to freeze me to death after all, they actually like or need the temp that low for their own comfort. And here I was thinking it was personal.

June!
I just planted my herb garden, a few tomato plants as well as most of my succulents and summer annuals.
They are now covered in several inches of snow. In June.
