Burrrrr!

I read Bean-mom's description of spring in the Midwest, written in her characteristically beautiful prose. She says of April, "... it is an unsettled month here in my region of the Midwest, where the weather careens wildly about, soaring into sunlight and the 70s on one day, plunging into the 30s and frost on the next." Honestly. There was hail tonight when I was driving home. There is supposed to be more fucking snow tomorrow! It's late April, dammit! I could say something nice like Bean-Mom, but really what I'm thinking is more like, "when the fuck can I finally put away my fucking sleeping bag with sleeves winter coat and be free?"

Thank god it's meant to be nearly 80 by Friday.

It's supposed to snow here tommorrow, too! "Fuck" is a pretty good response.

I'm nowhere near the midwest, and we've had snow one day and a 15 degree (celsius) increase in temperature the next. April is just weird. But the cherry blossoms look amazing ;)

Hope you get some more consistent sun soon!

BFF, it would be GREAT to live there to be near you and the fam, but it's not like the weather there is all that much better!

Cath, I hope so too.

Bean-mom and HGG, we can all drink a beer to "fuck". :)
