What ever happened to fall?
Remember that season that came between summer and winter?
Not only woud the leaves turn pretty colours (which inevitably happens - a lot of that has to do with the amount of daylight/darkness), but there used to be a period of time where temperatures were less than 25 and more than -10. And I’m not talking about a few days. Back in my day, fall (aka autumn) used to last for a month or maybe longer (it’s been so long since this increasingly rare phenomenon has occurred, I can’t really remember it exactly).
Remember sweaters? But not heavy bulky sweaters that you wear in winter to try to stay warm when it’s -30 outside. There used to be a day when you could wear lighter weight sweaters, and (get this) you could wear them outside.. without a jacket!! I’m not making this up people. Days like that used to exist, and for long enough that it was worthwhile spending money on clothes just for this season.
I miss it.

Hrrrmmm… seems like there is a bit of a theme in your household. Idiotbanter was complaining about the same thing today at work
