Okay, with everything going on in my life right now, I may have some more important (and interesting) things to be posting about- like finals or Heather’s graduation- but I’ve decided to leave all that for another day. Right now, I’m going to post about the psychotic, bipolar weather here in Colorado.<\/p>\n
Now before I start to talk about the weather I’d like to say that yes, I am going to just talk about the weather. I know, I know- this sort of fluff topic is one of those things that people roll their eyes about, like “are you seriously <\/em>going to talk about the weather<\/em>?!” Yes, because I want to. It’s my blog and I can do what I want. So there.<\/p>\n So, anyway, I’ve lived here for the better part of my 15 years of life, and the weather here still freaks me out. I mean, just this past month we’ve gone from 80\u00b0F to 20, had snow, rain, sun, clouds, wind, and everything in between. The weather here can just skip from one season to another in a matter of minutes, it’s cra~zy.<\/p>\n Just today, while driving, the mist and fog were so bad it was like something out of a movie. Creepy mist, dark sky, high trees. Sounds like something out of a horror<\/em> movie… But yesterday I was running around in Capris and flip-flops, perfectly comfortable. It snowed last weekend, I might add. Yes, it is May, and yes, this is considered a typical week for us.<\/p>\n A lot of people, particularly people from out-of-state, don’t believe us when we talk about the weather. A week here surely cures them of that. I mean, all in one day an average resident here should wear two layers- even in May- and have a spare change of clothes in the car or something in case the weather changes- warmer or colder. Coats, wind breakers, hoodies, boots, and umbrellas should always be easily accessible- even in May- and there should always be a snow brush in the car- even in May. However, the opposite is also applicable. This winter, I played tennis every Sunday until January. So, December I was getting up at eight and pulling on a t-shirt to go play outside. It’s ridiculous!<\/p>\n Yeah, so that was my weather-rant, which you may have found totally boring. I’ll probably be more creative than weather in my next post…<\/p>\n ~Courtney<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Okay, with everything going on in my life right now, I may have some more important (and interesting) things to be posting about- like finals or Heather’s graduation- but I’ve decided to leave all that for another day.
