Summer is over

Monday, September 21st, 2009

From the second I woke up this morning to now I have heard from multiple sources (TV, radio, internet, people) that summer ends today. This sucks I like summer I don’t really like winter even though I play Hockey and Snowboard. Winter means ugly cars, excessive clothing, cold toes and shoveling, and even though I have lived in Canada my entire life I still never look forward to winter.

A big part of my disdain about winter coming comes with the fact that being a BMX rider I like when the weather is tolerable enough to do so outside. Riding indoors gets old fast and isn’t really the same as riding outside. It’s stuffy, smelly, and dusty and some places can never get the climate quite right so even though you are sweating your nose is running, it’s really odd.

Another part comes with shoveling snow, it’s a huge inconvenience and last winter it never snowed at the right time to become a snow day. If we are going to get lots of snow it should come right at rush hour so I can work from home instead of waking up, shoveling, then coming home and shoveling again, that’s wack.

Also due to the fact I drive a lowered car its crucial I get my car out after the plows pass which means I have to wait until the plow passes which means lifting that heavy icy watery snow at the end of the drive way, ugh, this is my own fault though I suppose.

Really though as much as I don’t like winter I live with it since I am a Canadian but a lot of my disappointment at this summers ending is that it was such a mediocre one. I like HOT weather the days when the breeze is warm, ya I like a few of those, the days when I am outside thinking damn its kinda warm out today. The type of days where in one BMX session I sweat through 3 shirts and might consider an ice cream after (I don’t eat ice cream often). I like the days when you can go to a water park and not have to dry off the second you get our of the water to avoid being cold.  This summer had like two of those and never really when I needed them who needs a hot Wednesday? Bah

Summer next year bring your A game.
