I heard from my past Earth Science teacher that something about the arctic jet stream means that the US north/east coast is going to have a warmer spring than usual. Can't wait :P

True spring, at least in the Northeastern United States, is that 'magical' time of year when one to two feet of snow finally melts and causes flooding in basements everywhere. A constant marsh of water and dead bugs is seen as a sign of life in every home.

The ground can finally be seen, ripped and torn to shreds by snowplows as they unwittingly go off road just enough to take out a good portion of your lawn. The roads are strewn with gravel, and what little snow that is left is caked with mud and dust that destroys the soles and bottoms of your running shoes.

The birds fly back up north and wake you up each morning with their aggravated audio assaults because they're such ignorant, conceited little sh*theads that they have to broadcast it to you short-range outside your bedroom window.

:|

On a happier note, we've hit above O Celsius for the first time in two months, which means the snow is packable enough to make my Winter Gateway! You may recall that this archway will be based off of the one first seen in Sub7. If I can build it, I'll show pictures to you all and continue to take pictures as it slowly melts and descends into ruin, and as the rest of the snow melts and shows green grass underneath. If I get the timing right it will freeze overnight and harden, and will continue to stand after the rest of the fluffy snow around it melts, making the true entrance for the Winter palace :D

“Well then…” one of them asks with uncertainly. “Well then what?” the Knowlegde responded. “What was the weather like here during February of 2014?” “An Anomaly. Snow lasting much longer than it should have. I believed that my father said it had something to do with the ‘Polar Vortex’. That the pollution cause by global warming disrupted the winds of the north pole.” “What’s does the winds of the North Pole have anything to do with this?” the first man ask as he drank from a thermostat he had next to him.

^I got my first scar on my chin due to a bicycles accident. All thanks to a mail box that hit one of my handle bars and turned it 90 degrees. Flew right over, hurt my leg. I stayed still and waited for my mom to come get me after I called her on my cell phone.

Ouch. My worst cycling accident was when I crashed into a bush of bougainvillea flowers because the road was slippery from rain.
That was how I found out bougainvilleas have thorns. X0

Well I guess while we're on the topic, last summer I was biking on the south coast of Long Island when a gust of wind sent my bike wobbling enough for it to topple onto the pavement. Broke my right collarbone in two places and sprained my left wrist :| couldn't play drums or run cross country for a month. I also missed out on a 100 mile ride held near Cornell :(

Wow, that must have been really strong wind. Hope you're alright now. ;)
Anyway, raining here.
