What it’s like living in Michigan

Posted in Uncategorized

Today I was going to blog two new xtranormal videos of my husband and I having normal husband/wife conversation, just to prove that we’re both probably mentally ill. However, when I went to bed yesterday, it looked like this outside:

And when I got up this morning, it looked like this:

So I felt this was something I couldn’t let slip idly past without comment.

Here’s my comment: “What the shit is this? Wasn’t it 83 degrees last Sunday? And we complained that the house was too hot and we all slept nekkid on top of our covers because it was unbearably warm? And now there’s snow on the ground and in the trees like a goddamned Christmas wonderland? What the balls?”
There are a lot of clever jokes about Michigan and what it’s like to live here, but I think for the people who don’t live in the midwestern United States, well, they can’t possibly know that those jokes are basically all true. There was an email forward going around for a while called “You know you’re a Michigander if…” and there was a part where it says, “If you’ve ever had sunburn and frostbite in the same week.”
That’s this week, folks. That’s this week.
