spring, o spring, where art thou? WHERE?

I have changed from lamenting 'global warming' to lamenting 'climate change' because, although I have no doubt about this phenomenon, it would seem that the result of it in my area is THE WINTER THAT WILL NEVER END. I would give my right arm for some 'global warming' at this point, or at least for a bit of sunshine now and again.

It was nearly 80 degrees on Saturday and, while I appreciated and soaked up every single minute of it, such a day also makes the rest of this rainy, cold, snowy week even harder. (There is some kind of illustration in here about how we tend to skip over gratitude for what we have right to 'how come I can't have MORE of it?' but frankly, I don't care. I just need the sun.)
