Winter SUCKS!

I have come to a very profound conclusion after giving the matter a whole lot of thought. Winter sucks. It really really does. It started snowing Wednesday. I like snow, I just don't like the cold. I don't like walking outside and feeling my face go numb and have snot running down my face and not being able to feel it so I walk around looking like a six-year-old (you know, the ones that always seem to have a premanent trail of grossness running down their nose and when it reaches a cretain point they stick their tongue up as far as it'll go and lick it off). I mean, how gross is that?
Winter is also a time for sickness. I hate sickness. Mom is really sick again. She hasn't been healthy since she came back from Uncle Bernard's funeral in Arizona with the pneumonia that she caught from Grandma. That was like in August or something. All these months she's been battling with it and losing. I think it has something to do with all the smelly animals in here and the smoking. Aunt Lori came in to my work last night and told me that she put her foot down. She said she was going to take Mom to the doctor today if she had to drag her and pull her the whole way. She was fully ready to use force, but Mom went willingly. I'm glad that she listened to her. She never listens to me. She has no insurance and she doesn't want to take any more of my money. I've told her a bazillion times that I don't care. She's too proud. I wouldn't want to take someone else's money either, so I guess I can't blame her. But I asked her several times if she'd rather go to the doctor now or go to the hospital later. Aunt Lori used that same one. She told her if she didn't go, then she was just gonna haul her butt to the hospital.
Winter not only brings cold and sickness, but also unfathomable boredom. I thought my life was monotonous in the summer, now here comes winter to show me what it's really like to be bored out of my mind all day every day of my LIFE!
I do like snow, though. I like to shovel snow, sled in snow, snowboard in snow, have snowball fights, take walks in snow.
Oh and I like Christmas, despite its commercialization. I'm very Charlie Brown when it comes to that, but also Linus and Lucy. Well, not so much Lucy. She's kind of weird.
