Spring in Seattle Sucks.

Posted in Life on Capitol Hill at 8:28 pm by picklemouse

I was just looking back and noticed I posted about the beginning of spring back in February. Well, it’s now nearly June, and as far as I can tell spring still isn’t here yet. I guess we’ll just leap straight into summer some time around mid-July.

I’ve been greatly surprised that Seattle spring is much harder to cope with than Seattle winter. Who’d've thunk? Sure, winter was gray and rainy, but you kind of expect it. Unfortunately, spring’s a tease; a few beautiful days here and there interspersed with lousy days followed by crummy days, capped off with yucky days. Just when you think the weather has truly turned nice, the clouds close in again.

It’s also weird that even the Seattlites don’t know what’s normal. In the last few days I’ve had people tell me that this is normal, that it’s been unusually nice, and that it’s been unusually gloomy. C’mon, people, make up your minds! I need to know which it is so that I know whether or not I should move back to Florida.

    Ahem, I think I can speak to that. OF COURSE you should move back to Florida! Duh!

    I didn’t realize you were doing this blog, but you are the one person (besides Rodney’s) whose blog I really want to read.

    Blessings to you guys!

    Well, I’m glad you’re here! Although I can’t promise to post all that regularly, obviously. But I imagine you can sympathize with that. :)
