I might complain about it, but I'll take heat over cold any day.

More like I just want Winter to be Winter and Spring to be Spring. Instead I end up with 60s and 70s in the winter, and thus there's really nowhere for Spring to go except for hot.

I mean, we couldn't even leave March without hitting 94. Late March should be like highs in the upper 40s and 50s, with a day in the 60s or two at the absolute warmest. Instead it's sunny, hot days. The bugs are already out in full force. Was scared to let my dog out the other day because there was a wasp hanging around the back door. Jesus Christ. Can't Spring be nice for even five seconds before all of the bad stuff comes back?

first toads tonight

finally

the bufo americanus are trilling, down in the creek a thousand feet below the house, with a solid chorus of hyla alongside

rana pipiens and hyla chrysocelis next in line

if the virus is going to kill me, i hope it does in the spring. no more wonderful time to die than this.
