    i hate it here. i almost died at 5am to deliver people their goddamn doh-fucking-nuts. i had to go between 10 and 20mph with people tailgating me, who did not see that i was obviously driving a fucking shitty ass van and one slip would spin me 360 (i know cuz i've done it).

    going up a hill on a main street, i couldn't make it so, i had to pull over, wait for a cop, give up, go walking for a phone (would have been hell), finally see the cop come, jog towards her, slip and fall on my knee resulting in a big bruse, to block off traffic so i could turn around. she said that the street crews (salters and plows) couldn't keep up with the snow. and this is minnesota; pros of winter driving and snow plowing.

    when my shift ended, i got in my shitty car and knew right away that once i hit the county roads, i wouldn't be able to tell if i was on the road or where my turns were so i spent almost 2 hours in the break room to wait out the brunt of it. when i could see 20 feet in front of me, i left. it took me about 3 times as long as it should have to get here and i'm experiencing slight snow blindness. i also feel like i've had the sun on my cheek for the whole time but the sun is hidden by snow and snow clouds.

    and i can't even get in my driveway. my (b/f's) car is just sitting there, about half way up. and i don't give a damn.

    it's like ...21 degrees f
    7 inches of snow (wich i don't get... the snow is like from 1 foot to 6 feet, everywhere)
    wet and slipery under the snow

    i hate winter

    5 weeks ago i started thinking.. ok.. you know.. this is probably the last couple a weeks.. then it kinda got warmer (in the 40's [​IMG]). now, it's been like, 3 weeks of motherfucking teasing.

    i know no one cares.. but no one is awake and i'm pissed/astounded/rageful/smited by god.

    i get so fucking irritated and depresed with no sun. i can sit and stare for hours. i feel nothing. i don't care about anything. i'm in favor of launching a campaign to increase greenhouse effects.
    <SAD>?
    in the summer, i'm happy and i love everything. i have so much energy and i feel really good, most of the time.

    why the hell did people settle here?? oh.. k .. farmland.. fuck that. good farmland is totally not worth it. and look what farming has got us, anyway. overpopulation and fat asses.

    That's exactly how I am in the winter months, so I feel for you, I really do.

    Today was 68 degrees, but guess what. Tomorrow it's going to be a high of 34, and freaking snow. Can you believe that? Ugghh, but you know, what can you do really.
