GOING CRAZY! Midwestern weather rant...

[joepythons]

I always have issues with the weather in the midwest. Every winter it seems to get a little worse... winter just seems to last so long, and I get cabin fever very easily. I try to keep exercising and try to get to a tanning bed once in awhile (the depression that sets in during winter is due to a lack of sunlight... it's a vitamin deficiency that can actually be countered by working out---which releases endorphins---and tanning---ultraviolet light that the body craves). But it's been so HARD because I'm working all the time.

And to top it all off... I'm going snake crazy! I now have five babies waiting for warmer weather before they can be shipped! All five are in different locations throughout the country---and I have no doubts that all five are being taken excellent care of. But still!

Lol... I think the worst thing about it is this: because I'm waiting for everyone to arrive---and my collection at home seems so small---I just keep wanting to buy more kids! I find myself on KS all the time thinking "Wow, gotta add him to the collection!"

Anyone else having issues with this whole weather thing??? I'm seriously about to go crazy! Either that, or I'm going to end up with a whole lotta kids by the time winter's over here...

Aww cmon the weather isnt that bad lately

I love winter.

I'd rather have it overcast, gloomy, dark, rainy, snowy, windy, etc. then Sunny, and Hot. It makes me feel good. Sunny days get me bummed out. I'm glad this winter has been "long". Even though in October we had a couple of 90 degree days which isn't too common.


I do hate any form of wil temp changes, like that one time it went from 60 to a high of 5 degrees cus' I get sick.

Let's just all pray that the weather warms up enough to ship a couple kids out on Monday. Please? That might keep me happy... for a couple hours...

Very emo. I hate Chicago weather more than just about everything, and I've been saying I was moving to AZ as soon as I was out of highschool. I can't stand it, It snowed 21 days out of 29 here this month. It's been between -20 and 30 degrees here for over a month. I have a few snakes waiting to be shipped too.

We already had 4inches of snow on the ground in Detroit, it snowed over night and packed on more snow..........Crazy MI weather

well I moved to Illinois from Arizona because I hate the lack of weather and the heat. I mean I hate it I wont even go back to AZ to visit I HATE it. I cant wait until I am done with college I am moving to Minnesota I love the snow. I wish it would snow more here we always get teased with 1/2 inch here and there. I love any kind of weather the most depressing thing in the world is always knowing what the weather will be sunny and HOT. God I hate AZ. sorry but I really dont know how people like it. the only way I will ever put up with heat again is if there is a beach outback.

Ah lovely Indiana, how I miss thee and your pain in the tush weather....
Having lived there for the first 25 years of my life you get to see the most amazing weather in such short amount of times. I remember one day it started out in the high 60's. Sunny, warm, wonderful. By 6 that night there was 4" of snow on the ground and more falling.
About the SAD lightboxes. All the apartments in my building have them, the joys of living near Seattle.

I enjoy winter weather the first time that it snows, because it's so pretty. It just makes you want to build a fire, and snuggle on the couch with your honey, ya know? but after that it gets old fast, then I'm ready for it to be summer!
