The Joys of November

Am I the only one that has forgotten the joys of winter initiation . This is when you wake up knowing full well that it is freezing outside(literally) and, so, you dig up some winter clothes that you hadn't bothered to unpack yet hoping that the warm weather would stay a bit longer... even though you kinda like cold weather. Then you rush out to your car in a hurry 'cause you are late You jump into your car and suddenly "My eyes!" Oh wait that is only the 3 inch frost on the windshield. So out of the car you go and since you didnt carry an ice scraper this summer(although there may have been times when that would be useful) you have to use your fingers to scrape off a 6 inch square section. The you get back in your car and turn the defroster on full blast. In order to back out of the driveway you have to open the car door and look behind so your face is freezing and the rest of you is also 'cause your defroster is still blowing ice cold air. So finally you back out of the driveway and are able to see through the six inches of windshield. As you drive on, you become enraged that the windshield gets all the heat as the living being has to shiver to stay warm. You pull your hands into your sleeves to provide some protection from the iceberg steering wheel. Finally, your mind wanders so you no longer feel the cold. Soon you realize the windshield is cracking because it is still getting the heat and you have become so accustomed to the cold you havent even noticed all the frost is off the windshield and you dont need the defroster anymore. Ahhh, finally .... heat. 3 minutes later you are roasting because of all the clothes you put.
Some beach
Somewhere
Theres a big umbrella casting shade over an empty chair
Palm trees are growing
Warm breeze is blowing I picture myself right there
On some beach somewhere
Theres a beautiful sunset burnin up the atmosphere
Theres music
On some beach
Somewhere
