Things I hate about winter:
- Dry, brittle, static-y hair
- Exposing yourself to cold air and cold floors as soon as you get out of your warm bed
- Snow
- The flu (or any other virus for that matter)
- De-icing my car
- Messing up my shoes in the ice and slush
- Goosebumps
- Feeling sad/guilty about all the poor homeless animals (ok and people too)
- Going to work and leaving work in darkness
- Dry/cracked hands
- Grayness, dampness, and COLD COLD COLD!!!
Things I like about winter:
- The holidays—Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years… and all the fun food, decorations, music, parties, and new dresses that come with them
- Snow
- Cute jackets, scarves, and boots
- Seeing my breath outside
- Warm PJ bottoms
- Not having to maintain my tan so rigorously
- Snuggly blankets/beds/fireplaces
- Pumpkin Spice Lattes!
But, Christmas and New Years are both squeezed into December, so most of the winter is holiday-free. I don’t even have a fireplace, and there is nothing worse than static-y hair, being sick, and being cold.
So, summer still wins. I hate winter!
