Why can't you hippie freaks have your seasons at the same time as the rest of us?
We have our seasons at the same time, we just don't feel the need to have them so HARD.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'd take 278, Juliebird. But I am not a NJ-NYC commuting expert.

Our wings are not tired.
I have no weather complaints. It was a bit brisk this morning (60s). But apparently our cold snap is already done. My niece in Oswego NY tells me that they are closing the thruway near there for lake effect snow.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Chicago in the spring is nice, from my brief acquaintance with it.
It was probably Chicago's brief acquaintance with it as well.

I'm so mightily grateful for my working heater, it ain't even funny.
Storm windows are all down, but this 1890s building still sports a draft here and there.
I'm enjoying looking at the pretty patterns the frost makes on the storm windows...from the inside!

Put bubble wrap over the windows. We used that stretchy plastic stuff to insulate the windows in Otter Lake and it made a big difference. If I had actual cold to deal with I would go with bubble wrap!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
There's not really much I can do with the windows in my kitchen. They cover an entire wall, starting about a foot off the floor and going up to the ten-foot ceiling, and my table and a rolling cabinet thing are in front of them, so I can't install plastic or anything on them too easily. On the windows in my living room, I've got the plastic stuff plus insulated curtains, and I'm going to install the plastic on the last living room window and the bedroom and bathroom windows tomorrow.

For you north is closer to the equator, right? so in addition to having the wrong seasons, your directions are upside-down.
Wow, I hadn't even thought of it like that before! Freaky.
Though I quite like Seattle's two seasons; 9 months of the year we get 40-50 and raining, three months we get 70 and sunny!

If only everyone else didn't think that would be wonderful to live in, I'd move there if I were richer.
