i kinda relaxed into a trance while waiting for the metra and listening to basic channel y'day — everything was white and the visibility was so low you couldn't see the train until it was right in front of you.

I took the metra a couple times! not shabby

I like that space out effect with snow. That's part of snow's charm iirc.

It's supposed to be 50 on Sunday! The air felt very temperate while I was walking the dogs this morning, and it was only 26. The snow will be gone in no time. Honestly, the first 70 is great, but the first 50 is comparatively more exhilarating.

Been riding my bike to as many things as I can justify, lately. Tonight was maybe a little too cold for it but luckily my subcutaneous fat protects me as does the alcohol content of my blood.

Stupid wintery mix today. 14 out of 17 days in March have been below average temp and it is forecasted that the next 14 days will be below average as well. 10" of snow this March, a third of what we've received all winter. Worst fucking March ever.

It has been a bit of a bummer, I'll agree. These ice balls falling from the sky are definitely not what I ordered.

tru. vg how long did it take you to adjust to f°?
there is no good reason for the temp to go above 80f imo. maybe like 82 if you're at the beach

I adjusted pretty quick. I moved to Sac in the height of summer so it was oh okay FARKING HOT = 100

March is such a con of a month, you always think it's going to be better than the preceding month and it's usually just as shitty as the previous two. April is where it's at.

I'm starting to think this is true, but this thread will chronicle the slow plodding grey slushy howling monkey onset of spring. When it comes, we can look back at March and lol.

xxp True as a general rule, but my wife and I moved back to Cleveland from Virginia in March 2007, and April gave us this:

Instead of going to three home opener baseball games, I spent three days clearing 18+ inches of snow from my driveway.
