moominmolly: (blurry rain hello!)

I admit it:

I like this weather. It's grey and rainy, and after the first morning of adjusting to having no light, I find it kind of relaxing. I'm not really biking this spring, so I don't feel cheated out of good-weather rides. I have a car that I can drive to work in, and a watertight bedroom to sleep in. So, all I feel is a cool drizzle on my face when I go outside, and the pleasure of snuggling up under warm blankets (with a warm, feverish man) when I get home. Rain makes it so nice to be inside -- and if I know I have someplace to go at night, I don't even mind being wet. It's nice.

(I especially love this kind of weather for a day or two in the summer, as a break from all of that sunny stuff.)

I'd like it to hit summer first, even though please!

Yeah. I realize my viewpoint is unpopular. I'm not a huge fan of summer. Still, I'll see what I can do.

I don't really like summer here. If only it could be spring and fall
all year 'round... I fear we are being cheated out of spring, though,
and that it will go straight into Summer after this is done.

I fear that, too! That would suck.

I'm with you. As nice as my weeks in California were, they reminded me how glorious it is to have a bit of actual Weather. And then I came home, and there was some!

And I love the feeling of cool mist on my face, and not having to wear sunglasses.

Seconded. I'm a huge fan of the gray day, be it of the crisp or misty variety.

Like today!

I like it too, except in so much as it interferes with my plans to go out and do something.

this weather is fine, in moderation.

25/30 days in MAY being cold and rainy is not acceptable.

I'll be in California not long after this "spring" weather passes (not sure exact dates, but yeah), so I'll be going from highs of 45-50 to 90-100+.

Me + 100F = ded

I've been surprisingly okay with this as well. Ro, on the other hand, is going bug shit crazy. Weird. Normally it's the opposite. Sometimes, I think we swap brains in our sleep.

Mmmm....year round spring and fall is my ideal too.

I hated this weather yesterday, but then I spent some time on my porch last night and dawn this morning, listening to the patter of the rain on the leaves, watching the trees sway in the breeze...and all was better.

Last night I had two warm mammals with me in bed, but they each only take up about 1 sq ft of space and don't radiate much heat. Foo!

I adore that weather!

I think I might have to move somewhere even *more* dismal than Boston, someday. mmmm rain!

Weather like this brings back very happy memories of living in Seattle. :) But I could still use some sun!

... I'm not a huge fan of summer ...

me either! i like this stuff too, but i've been slinking around not saying anything too loudly for fear i'd get shot.

Oh, so it's YOUR fault.

(And, what others have said. Cool and rainy is one thing, but for nearly ALL of May?)
