HAH! No, just kidding. It’s not. In fact, no one believes that it shall ever come again. It’s official, we’re in Narnia during the days of the White Witch, folks! If you were to bump into Mr. Tumnus, he’d be wearing a parka and would be suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder. He’d be stuffing his face with Turkish Delight to take the edge off. Sad business…
Gone are the days when we spoke of the weather only when we had nothing else to say. Now we talk about it shamelessly at every opportunity. We’ve had so much snow and the landscape is so monochrome that I’ve forgotten what colours are. When the sun is out, all you’re guaranteed is that your face will freeze off in very bright light. The weather network says it’s -14 tonight and it feels like -24. And I’ve forgotten what it feels like to be warm!
