Screw you, mother nature

Anyone who has ever lived in Southern Alberta, or even knows the slightest bit about them good ol' prairies, knows one thing:

The weather here is, without a doubt, completely and wholly 100% screwed up.

If SouthAB is good at anything, its a fake spring. And I don't mean it stops snowing for a couple of days.
No, that would be reasonable. Nope, the snow dries completely up, skies are bluebird and we hit between +10 - +15 degree weather.

In January.

Its very nice, and I can't complain. The problem is I am too easily fooled by the duplicitous weather. I bust out the spring CD's, throw open the windows in the home (nevermind the fact that the windchill still puts us at about +2) dance around like some pagan sprite and come this close to lighting a fire to my sweaters and long underwear. Then I snap out of it and realize that in two days the faux equinox will come to a crashing end up against -40 degrees and penguin freezing blizzards.

Stupid weather, this is all Mark Campbells fault.
