Thursday Thirteen

Winter weather (snow) has arrived!
In honor of this fact, my thirteen for this week is:

Thirteen reasons that I hate winter

1. High heating bills. I can't stand to be cold and refuse to set my thermostat below 72°F.

2. Holidays! There are just too many of them at this time of year.

3. The days are too short. I develop light deprivation depression.

4. Driving when it snows is a nightmare!

5. Long hours at work due to the holidays, and later taxes.

6. I can't go to any concerts because of the unpredictable weather.

7. I'm always tired (see #3 & #5).

8. Sweaters make me itch!

9. Sniffle.... Cold & flu season!

10. I go to work in the dark and come home in the dark.

11. Lots of bad memories associated with tis time of year (deaths, etc.).

12. Dead animals! I'm sick of having to look at hunters' fresh kills! BLECH!

13. I do not have Michael Schenker to keep me warm!!!
