False hope
Last night as I was leaving work, I noted that the sky appeared to be a bit lighter than it has been in recent weeks, and I thought to myself, "Wow, the days are already getting longer." Then I realized that we're still nearly a week away from the winter solstice, so the days are, in fact, still getting shorter. Which means it's not even officially winter yet. Great.
Before all you hearty Midwesterners jump on me for complaining about winter, let me just state for the record that my general abhorrence of the season (cross-country skiing and snow angels excluded) may explain why I live in Alabama. It does not, however, explain why I just applied for a job in Boston.
