Idk why the fuck around this time of year my brain starts caving in on itself. Spring to autumn im ok then it hits the end of the year then jan/feb i just implode. Then come march april i start being ok again.

I just cant be fucking doing this every year do i need to book a holiday to fucking eyebeefa in winter like all my gammony peers? Im sick of the memories of my life being staring at grey skies why does it hurt me so bad? Its stupid? Why does a grey sky make me sad?

Its like i need a constant feed of valium for 6 months a year im like burning half my life away feeling miserable because its not sunny i cant live like this

Am I like the only motherfucker that like winter? brow I mean the weather recently has been mostly clear skies and no snow ( phoenix-objection-1phoenix-objection-2 WHICH SUCKS BECAUSE SNOW IS GREAT) so I can't complain much. The worst part is probably not having the sun help me wake up in the mornings, and thanks to this thread I now know sunlamps are a thing. pineapple-surf Also don't get me started on full moons which are beautiful as fuck this time of year, too bad I missed the last super moon, a night walk then would've rocked... soypoint-1 hex-moon soypoint-2

Also........ crima just-a-week-away

British winter is a special kind of miserable because its always overcast and its always raining. Clear skies are great and snow is great when I went to Finland in November i was very happy also sauna really just is the fix for dark winter days. The thing about snow is it actually makes everything brighter owing to it being white and reflecting all the light its actually quite blinding so it works as its own sun lamp and makes even darker days more tolerable. But we dont get snow much and when we do the infrastructure collapses instantly but my boss will still tell me i need to be in the office
