If you live in Starkville, MS or attend Mississippi State University, you may have noticed that it's just a tad disgusting outside. I don't think Starkville has gone more than three days this year without rain, and i'm all rained out.

This past week or so, It has been foggy, cold, and rainy, everyones favorite combination. Personally, I prefer hot weather over cold weather any day. Especially this week, the weather has been at it's worst. There has also been several flash flood warnings as well as tornado warnings. And it seems as if everyday is a different season. For example, it will be 40 degrees one day, 70 degrees the next, and then 30 degrees. I honestly believe that Mississippi weather can't make up it's mind.

Because it has been raining non stop for the past week, there is barley any grass left, its all just mud and overflowing ditches. I only wish that it would stop raining, just for a little while, so that the mud could dry up. Speaking of mud, when I was walking to class the other day I was wearing my white vans, which was a mistake on my part, and stepped into an entire pool of mud. This incident, to say the least, was not at all fun and funky.

On top of all of this, the raining seems to be constant. I wish I could look out my window and see a rainbow or the sun, but instead I see sky covered in dark clouds. And I don't know about everyone else, but i'm really excited about the early spring were about to have, but with spring comes more rain.

With all of this being said, I hope that spring gets here soon because when it does, hopefully it will be a bit warmer. And to my fellow citizens of Starkville: stay toasty my friends.
