one thing i've never understood is why people, long ago, came all the way to the United States from all these freezing cold miserable regions only to move to other freezing cold miserable regions. all those Germans and Norwegians in North Dakota could have just travelled another few hundred miles and been in Colorado
i can make fun of them because some of them are my ancestors |

I think I jinxed myself now it's really cold. But at least not the kind of cold your snot freezes. So I guess it could be worse and now the sun is staying out longer ;) |

Oh, uh... yeah! You mean you're NOT getting sun burned while BBQing?!

Or maybe I'm just bored...:)

Today it rained on the snow, that fell yesterday. That combination of muddy and icy is really something.
And it's only the beginning of february. There's more to come for two more months! Grey skies rule! |

had lunch outdoors again, this time without the protection of an umbrella. i think the right side of my face got sunburned.

Tonight will be another Jamaican Red Stripe/kick back on the porch to watch the sun slowly fade scenario. I suspect the same sweet dusky breeze will be coming along to kiss me on the cheek. |

The groundhog has never really shown that much skill as a meteorologist, though.

Well we had groundhog day yesterday so another six more weeks of winter.
Carloynanna no I agree it hasn't been a "real" winter. If we had had lots of snow and sunshine and stuff it would have been better but this grey yucky winter is making me ready for warmer temps, sun and everything. |

As for global warming, I think the correct term is climate change. Part of this is from CO2 and even if it weren't, this doesn't change the fact that pollution and emissions need to decrease.
EXACTLY. That's why I can't understand why people who insist that global warming isn't happening think that means there shouldn't be any environmental regulations whatsoever. Even if it doesn't affect the ozone layer at all, pollution is still undeniably harmful. Not surprisingly, many of those who deny global warming have corporate interests at heart (well, if they can be said to HAVE hearts).
On a more local level, it's unseasonably warm today, and I am quite glad of it.

I've been told it was snowing here this morning, I was in bed so missed it, heh. It's been weird here weather-wise this winter I think. |

Wow, I didn't know that SAD is recognized in the DSM.
According to this site you better break out the lightbox, or lithium or paxil...

Yep, no real winter in California either. It's like freakin' June! Only I guess a bit more chilly at night. It's depressing when you go skiing and the only snow on the mountain is on the actual ski runs. |
