I hate it I'd rather have rain than snow it's awful and dangerous. We get the snow every year yet people still act like to their first time driving in it. So irritating. IP: Logged

Then you have to move forward into the cross-lane to avoid being rear-ended. Firesides are nice! http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum32/HTML/000380.html IP: Logged
MetalAphrodite Moderator Posts: 1733 From: Zanguin :3 Registered: Jul 2012	posted December 14, 2013 05:34 PM I live in Vegas and the weather is always weird. I managed to catch a cold and hold onto it for the past week. I've sneezed a few times and it's made my nose bleed lol. It was raining heavily in November and there were a few windstorms blowing stuff down and breaking things. Now, we have super cold days that are like in the 20s and some decent days like today, which are good weather. I keep falling asleep. So sick x__x. IP: Logged

somethingexcellent Knowflake Posts: 4122 From: vodka fine, I'm so divine Registered: Nov 2012	posted December 14, 2013 06:07 PM WELL I have seasonal affective disorder, so yeah, the temptation to shut down is extremely strong...but I'm too proud to let it get to me, so I try to stay as active as I normally am. Though...occasionally it is good to lie in bed all day and lament life in such a cold, wintery area... IP: Logged

I should probably zip it because anything I say will sound like I'm 'rubbing it in' lmao I'm not a fan of winter, but part of me does miss the white Christmases I had in Europe, when I was young.

However, they can experience decreased metabolic rates associated with colder environments and/or low oxygen availability (hypoxia) and can experience dormancy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibernation I think those sleepy bears are onto something.
