It's Official

About 2 things are official:

1) Spring is here.

2) St. George is bomb.

I've never been a fan of springtime. Before you hate, I have my reasons.

Besides the fact that springtime plays with your head and your emotions, for example, you wake up to a beautiful sunny day, thinking "oh, maybe winter is gone". So you ditch your winter attire, and gleefully dash out into the sunlight, but only to be rudely decieved. It's not warm at all. It only looks warm. And that's why Spring is sort of bad. Or, you plan for a freezing day, because you thought you learned your lesson, only to be fooled again. It decides to warm up a lot, then you have to carry your jacket. Like carrying a purse and baby isn't enough. Or tie it around your waist, which went out in the 90's. If it's gonna be warm, be warm. Like summer. If it's gonna be cold, be cold. Like winter. But don't just be fickle and tricky. No one likes that.

But there are other factors to add to my dislike of the season.

Indeed, there are.

Such as:

1) I had a hugely, messy, awful, horrendous, break-up that happened in the springtime. I mean bad. Intense. We won't get into that.

2) Then the next spring, I was making crappy decisions, so crappy in-fact, that I landed myself 2 days into Jail. As if that wasn't bad enough, I had a seizure while there, fell off a my bunkbed and landed face-first on a concrete floor. I spent that spring with black-eyes and a goose egg. (That was my own fault ,I know, I know.)

3) The Spring after that I was married and pregnant. (my life is a rollercoaster) I had the absolute worst morning sickness in all of the spring months. Everything about Springtime made me sick.

4) The spring after that, we lived in Logan. Logan's Springtime is nothing to rave about. In-fact , it's quite dreadful. It shouldn't be called Spring. It's pretty much winter there all year. It snows in June. (Sorry, all you Loganites. Summer & fall are ok there!)

5) But, alas, this is where my hatred ends. This year, Spring has been divine. Pure delight. St. George's "winter" can barely pass for chilly. I was thinking, "is this it??" I could go barefoot in December. I kept waiting and waiting for it to get cold and feel like winter. Nope, didn't happen. And now it's warming up. March, 75 degrees. I'm tellin you, theres no better place on Earth.

SO, Now I like Spring. But only if I am following the Law, not pregnant, and Not living in Logan.

Summer is still the best.

But Spring isn't so bad.
