Favourite Season

It's so nice having some decint weather for a change. None of this snow falling icy roads business. It's also nice to come out of the office and still catch a little bit of light before darkness consumes my car.

The temperature has been really dear to us. It's wonderful to step outside and not shiver.

Winter used to be my favourite season.

It might have been because I was such a night creature. I had (and still have) my windows "boarded" up with posters so it would block the light during the day. I would be up until like 5 or 6 in the morning everyday doing whatever.

Maybe it was the snow, running out in the middle of the night all bundled up. The cold yellow glow of street lamps crystalized across the surface of the snow. Sound was muffled and dampened by the porous snow, yet it would resonate everytime you crackd through a bit of ice.

Now I can't stand the winter. As much of a night creature as I'd like to be, there's just nothing to do. I hate driving at night because people are stupid and don't turn their headlights on.

I hate the snow because it takes me an hour and half or more to get home. All my clothes are covered in salt and people get into accidents.

I would have to say that Spring is my favourite season now. The days are perfetly long, the light expiring just around 6 PM. The air is still a little cool, but the sun is warming everything up nicely. It's just warm enough that you don't have to wear a heavy coat, but you can still wear thin outerwear.

Who knows, maybe in a few years, I'll like autumn more?
