Re: Rant; Winter 2013/14
That baseball picture above just shows in a nutshell what is wrong with Northern Illinois and why all of it sucks.
Today, I actually felt *warmth". I was on my patio where we have a privacy fence, and it blocked the breeze. With no breeze, and the sun out, I actually felt some warmth. It was only mid-50's, but it felt nice. And tomorrow 66, and I'm off. I'll take the laptop out and watch some baseball and feel some more of that warmth
A [expletive] week coming up, but I'll enjoy this little break.

I woke up to accumulating snow. I am not at a ski lodge. I am unhappy.

Sometime after noon, the last vestiges of snow completely melted from my lot. My lot is completely snow free for the first time since November. With that, I am officially retiring from complaining about this winter, and shifting my moaning and griping to spring.

6 inches of new snow last night right after almost all of the rest of it had melted. [expletive] winter.

God that just sounds unbearable. If we got a significant snow with baseball now going after this winter I think I would just snap.

Supposed to be in the 40s and 50s this weekend so it should mostly melt off soon. Still - I'm so done.

SNOW and 30 degrees. Good thing I didn't plant any corn last week. Oh wait I did.
