Another thing I don't understand: People who love the winter.

No shit.

People think I'm joking when I say I'd not consider ANYTHING north of here. I'm not. This pushes my limits to the extreme. Isn't good for me, but I do like the city elsewise.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wouldn't say I love winter, but I don't hate it. I love fall. And I generally love the variety. But it's a little chilly here now.

Another thing I don't understand: People who love the winter.

And I don't understand people who love the summer. Well, not Seattle summers, which are heaven on earth. But the hot, muggy kind.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't understand people who haven't heard "Sad But True" by Metallica, myself.

Then you'll never understand me. Unless it's one of those songs where I'll go, "OH, THAT one."

But the hot, muggy kind.

I don't like those either. I'd be happy in the land of eternal autumn.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Why do they leave their eggs out, unrefrigerated, in Europe? And we do not? What is the difference in our eggs?

I suspect we're being nutty. They also refrigerate cheese and butter less.

I love winter.

That ship has sailed, Miss natural-hair-colours-only and your no-showering self.

As well as richness, you're GENETICALLY PROGRAMMED to know more Metallica than I do.

I love summer. Hot and dry or wet, I love it. Baked, steamed, I feel alive and rejuvinated and it is MINE. I love the feeling of my skin tightening up in the sun and god, I miss the sensation of living at 4K ft and its immediacy. Instant satisfaction, even if it is 12 out.

I totally do get people who don't, via reversal of senses. A friend of mine absolutely can't cope. Heat makes her pass out. We joke that it is a minor miracle we stay friends: she hibernates in the heat, me, in the cold.

I may have heard it. I don't necessarily remember the title or lyrics. (see previously admitted faults.)
