I think the weather plays horrible tricks on your mind and your body.

Staring out the window at the bright sun, and the blue sky you can't help but wish you were outside immersing yourself in spring ... but upon venturing out and exposing yourself to the elements, you realize that the sun isn't so warm, and the sky might actually be grey. You can't help but wish for the cold to stop, and for winter to end. You fantasize about endless summers and wonder why it couldn't encompass all 4 seasons. Above all else, you curse at yourself for not wearing a hat ...

The cold is bitter, it's damp and invasive. It's a cold that goes to the very core of your bones so as to provide a deep shiver that runs from the inside out.

It's not just your bones either ... not just your body, but it feels like your mind is slowing down. It's almost as though the blood circulates at just a fraction of its normal speed. Leaving you with a case of the "dumbs", unsure of what you feel or think as you try to interpret all the information coming through your senses.

OR ... maybe that's just me ... maybe I just feel this way because I'm tired and I crave the opportunity to do ... nothing.

Is doing nothing in fact doing something?

I wish spring was here.
