i hate you.
it's 55 and raining today. in june! it's june! maybe you didn't know that? maybe you lost your calender. maybe the alarm didn't go off and you've overslept. june = summer, and summer = warm weather.
you're a very beautiful state, wisconsin. i've always thought so. but your beauty isn't enough to keep you charming at this point. you need to give us some more. you need to give us some sunshine and warm weather.
55 and raining. yesterday was even colder. we should have had this weather in april. but in april we had even colder weather and snow. again. april showers bring may flowers? does this ring any bells? my first roses just bloomed this weekend. in june.
we laughed the 5th time it snowed. we even giggled the 27th. but by march, it really wasn't funny anymore. just wait, we told each other, it's almost spring.
in april, we laughed nervously and said, surely this can't go on forever.
in may, we really started to worry about you, wisconsin. we weren't sure it was ever going to end. it's almost june, we reassured each other. in june, we'll be fine.
well, june 1st has come and gone, and it is not warm. you've teased us with a few gorgeous days, then punished us with chills again. haven't we been punished enough? don't you see the news? didn't you know that this past winter was one of the worst in our recorded history?
you've already dashed our hopes for spring, must you do so for summer too? we don't get a very long summer. it's beyond unfair to put us through a winter like that, only to eat up one of the three months of warm weather we get. will you take away our beautiful spring only to dump us directly into a hot and humid summer, which will only be 8 weeks long by that point, and then it's on to a chilly fall and WINTER AGAIN? our poor little psyches cannot handle it.
you're officially on notice, wisconsin. i'm not sure what we're going to do, but when we figure it out, it will be big.
i want to love you, wisconsin. i really do. but i hate you right now.
