Winter. Or late spring/early summer. ...I hate early spring, mostly because about 90% of stuff is dead-ish and brown-ish. -_o
"Sonuna" Taranimak ("Sonuna" Sharkquill) has been content lately. She admired own very fine Bed recently. She talked with a parent recently. She talked with a friend recently. She had a good meal recently. She admired a fine tastefully-arranged Desk recently.
She is a citizen of The United States of America. She is a member of The State of Minnesota. She is a member of The Town of Odyssey.
"Sonuna" Taranimak likes Bauxite, Copper, Green jade, the color navy, cloaks, ballistas, cats for their aloofness and hydras for their seven heads. When possible, she prefers to consume Dr Pepper and ramen.
She lives at a relaxed pace. She tends to avoid crowds. She has a fertile imagination. She is completely disorganized. She is very distant and reserved. She tends not to openly express emotions. She needs caffeine to get through the working day.

Hooray for winter! I've been criticized for my preference of winter before, but that hasn't changed my mind! There aren't any mosquitoes or bugs outside, you always know what kind of weather to dress for (cold!) and I would rather be snowed on than rained on. I hate reain and puddles! I also don't like getting really warm, because there's only so much that you can take off or do to deal with the heat. With winter, you just turn up the heat inside, or put warmer clothes on. Plus, I like snow! That is why I prefer winter.

Ha, that's what I think too! Winter is my favorite after fall - my family doesn't understand that at all. They are all summer (hot, sticky, drenched with sweat, mosquito bites, ticks, etc.) people.Catspaw wrote:Hooray for winter!

Same here. I can't stand being hot, and I absolutely abhor bugs and humidity.Laura Ingalls wrote:Ha, that's what I think too!

In Oregon, I don't care so much, but in MN---I HATE SUMMER!!!!!! Millions of huge mosquitoes and the humidity is horrendous. So I would vote fall or winter. I love all the colors of the leaves turning there (here everything is evergreen) and I love the snow. In Oregon, probably winter or fall. I don't like it as much when it snows here because no one is prepared for it and they act like it is the end of the world. At least people know how to deal with snow in MN.

I love summer! All seasons have their benefits of course but summer is my favorite. Fall would be second as I enjoy the crisper air and the coming of Christmas.
I HATE being cold. Since I'm indoors most of the time I can keep "cool" inside during the summer. In the winter I have a much harder time staying warm. Things just get a whole lot colder than they get warm. Not too many people die from the heat.
Rain is also another dislike of mine. It's not so bad if it's rare and I just look at it through the window occasionally (though the gloominess isn't always enjoyable)... but walking and driving in it is so much more inconvenient.
Yeah, by driving slowly with white-knuckles. Actually, that's the one thing I dislike about winter, is driving in snow (my car isn't a big fan of winter).jessicado wrote:In Oregon, I don't care so much, but in MN---I HATE SUMMER!!!!!!

Where I live, that's not much of a problem because it hardly ever snows. When we get 3 inches, the city pretty much shuts down.Jonathan wrote:Yeah, by driving slowly with white-knuckles.

Firstly, I don't care much for winter. It's cold and my friends and family love cross-country skiing, which I hate. But there aren't any bugs, so it's not terrible.
Spring is wonderful! (except for the fact that the aforementioned family and friends love biking, which I also despise.) It's like a new beginning. The buds are coming out. The grass turns green. And it's quite entertaining to watch the river break up and rise.
There are so many fun things going on in Summer, it's hard to despise it, but I do despise the bugs, with a passion. Mosquitos, flies, horseflies, bleh. And when they're out, you can't wear shorts and a t-shirt (well a t-shirt is ok, but I don't wear shorts mostly for the bug reason.) without getting bitten to death. (I think MN and where I live are the absolute worse for bugs. Did you know that we actually use pellet guns to kill the mosquitos, they are so humungous?)
Fall is totally beautiful. The colors are magnificent. Last fall, my friend and I walked down to the riverbank nearly every day to just sit and talk about life. The geese were flying south, too It was so wonderful.
So out of the four seasons, spring would have to be my favorite. (Oh, did I mention that my birthday is in the spring, too?)
