What’s up with this weather? Oh yeah, it’s June on the North Coast. For those of you who live in diverse climates and are already tanned and complaining about the heat and humidity—I’m trying not to resent you. I kinda do, tho. I see your Facebook status talking about your flirty little sandals and the neato keen colored lights in you pool and I think very, very bad thoughts about you.
I’m sorry. It’s poor form. My sense of ethics and fair play and being genuinely happy for your good fortune is moldy.
I wonder if that would fly in a Great Judgement scenario? Dear God, I was petty and thought malicious things because I was green with mold and envy. There was something in the water, God. It’s not really my fault?!
I’m guessing not. Good thing I don’t put much stock in those scenarios. (God’s going to punt me straight to purgatory and LEAVE me there, don’t bother praying for my water-logged soul.)
Where was I? Oh yeah, you’re enjoying summer and I’m busy resenting you.
Welcome to June.
June is always a problematic month; let’s hope for a better July!! I still prefer our cool weather to 90s and humidity. No, thanks! I love running, being outside and doing without A/C. I would like a bit of sunshine though. 🙂
When we lived in Seattle I used to laugh because June (and to a degree July) never seemed stellar. August, September, and a touch of October were where the long sunny days seemed to be in abundance.
Here though, I have no such hope or expectation… this is the price we pay for perma-green. If the desert is at one end of the spectrum, we are its polar opposite. 😉
Anyway, lovely picture as always.
I was reading an article about Seattle’s food scene on the New York Times, in which the author stated that good weather didn’t really start in the Northwest until June. And my immediate thought was, “POSER.” Because it doesn’t. Everyone knows it starts July 5th. But darn if I’m not hopeful each year. ~W
I’d prefer you envy me for my beauty and charm, but I’ll take what I can get. 🙂
(That doesn’t make sense to me, either.)
You’re pretty cute when you’re pointless. 😀 ~W
Yes, I too could use a few more sunny days here! Anytime now, yep, still waiting…
It’s raining here.
Yours forever in crappy weather solidarity, Carly 🙂
Bugger!
Come on…not even for a second while the East was baking last week…not even one second weren’t you feeling a little bit relieved that it was only 65 degrees on your front porch? I sure was.
Not one minute. In part, because it’s too darn cold to really linger on the porch. And also because I’m a freak who loves 90 degree weather. ~W
In fact, what I thought was, “What a bunch of whingers.”
