Everyone on the upper east coast, let’s say it together.. WHY IS THE WEATHER BEING LIKE THIS?! The weather has been so bipolar I feel like I’m perpetually wearing a pair of shorts and a T-shirt under every outfit so that if it magically gets warm outside I can strip off my coat and sweatpants. I think we all can agree that we just want spring to get here and stay!
For one instance, this morning I got dressed without checking the weather, (silly me) and I had just assumed hat because it was 75 degrees yesterday, that today’s weather would be slightly similar. So I wearing a pair of shorts, a T-shirt, and my Keds sneakers. I walked outside and pretty much turned into an icicle right there! It’s 38 degrees outside!! My wardrobe is now in a state of disarray because I can’t confidently pack away any winter clothes but I still need clothes that won’t make me burn with the heat of one thousand suns if the weather decides to act like the season it is for once.
I don’t know how much more snow I can handle, personally, especially after that three feet of snow adventure that happened here in Radford a few weeks ago that left the entire town powerless, trees knocked down, and caused me to call the police to ask for a ride to safety because I was stuck outside.
I’m ready for the sun to come out, sitting out in the quad with my friends, slushie in hand, kind of weather. I want to go to the beach with my family and fly kites and just run around outside soaking up the sun! Is that so much to ask, Mother Nature? Can we be mature adults here and act our age? Er season, rather.
