Happy Friday, Friends!!
If you live in Alberta,
Canada as I do then I’m sure you’re about ready to hop on the nearest plane
heading to warm sand, blue sea and a temperature above zero. Oh, and of
course no snow. Yes, I feel it too and if you’ve purchased a ticket to a sunny
destination I envy you. I fit into a normal size suitcase too, just sayin’.
The cold weather here
brings grouchy and irritable people. March in Alberta gives a new meaning to
winter and because I’ve lived here most of my life I can honestly say I am
surprised every year when we get dumped on in what is supposed to be our
Spring.
Like the rest of you
Albertan’s once March 1st hits my body goes into winter survival mode
and I swear I can feel warmer weather coming. I imagine shorts and tank tops and my
nose picks up the scent of freshly cut grass.
To my dismay I open my eyes and see
white fluffy snowflakes falling outside. In the privacy of my home I fall to
the ground wailing, WHY?!?! I pound my fist into
the hardwood floor until my body succumbs to exhaustion. I lay there feeling
like all hope is lost, my bottom lip quivers and yes, I shed a few tears.
Blast you, March!!!
Where are my flowers,
flip-flops and barbequed steaks? Slushes, ice cream, and cold beers don’t taste
the same. I want my sun-kissed cheeks, highlights, and bronzed skin back!
Ugh. I am tired of you
March. I am sick to death of that white crap outside!
Have you no pity? Do you not see our bright red skin
from the frigid weather you have bestowed upon us? The twenty minutes it takes
to warm up our cars and the gas we are wasting? You are one of the contributing factors as
to why our environment is going to hell!
Bravo March. Once again
you have come in like a lion and will go out like an asshole!
My fellow Albertans we
must stick together. I am starting a petition to ban this month…who is with me?.....
Anyone?..... Buelller?
Okay, I may have jumped
the gun, maybe next year. J
Cheers,
Kat
