forty-one weeks

So I've come to the conclusion...

SO I'VE COME TO THE CONCLUSION...

I've come to the conclusion, all this stayin' at home business for the past two hundred and twenty-three million, one hundred and seventy-one thousand, two hundred cat seconds, is not only gettin' on the nerves of cats and peeps alike, but...

BUT IT'S GETTIN' ON THE NERVES OF MOTHER NATURE, AS WELL.

MOUSES!

This here is Canada, Mama of the Earth and Weather, and it's winter, and Canadian winter weather is not meant to be like what it is right now, at all.

Why just the other day...

Just the other day, it was Christmas, and did we have nice fluffy snow and a chill in the air like we're SUPPOSED to have on Christmas Day?

NO.  No, instead we had drizzle and fourteen degrees.

That's in Celsius for my American friends, which is 'bout fifty-seven degrees for you.

MOUSES!

Then on Boxing Day - the glorious day when cats all over Canada spend an entire twenty-four hours indoors by a fire or some kinda central heatin', luxuriating in boxes, escaping the cold winter weather outdoors.  Well the Boxin' Day temperatures were high just like those on Christmas, and...  And the drizzle turned into rain!  HEAVY rain, I might add.

MOUSES!

Now here we are, two days later, and the sun is shinin' beautifully and there's a smatterin' of snow.

Well there WAS a smatterin' of snow when I first awoke this mornin', but that sun has gone and melted it makin' it disappear.

MOUSES!

Not that I mind a good sun puddle or two.  Mind?  I LOVE 'EM, to tell you the truth, but still...

But still, this is Canada and in Canada, winters are SUPPOSED to be cold.  And snowy.  And Christmases are supposed to be white.  Not this green cra...

Um...

Nah, I can say crap.  Got a whole year 'til next Christmas.  Plenty of time to get back on Santa's good list, for sure.

MOUSES!

So anyway...

So anyway, I've come to the conclusion that Mother Nature must be havin' a bad year just like the rest of us are, and her bad mood is wreckin' havoc with our Canadian weather.

So...

So I'm gonna say this once and I sure do hope I don't have to say it again:  Mama Nature?  GET WITH THE PROGRAM FOR PETE'S SAKE!  We need SNOW in winter, and keep the rain for other times of year.  'Cause if you're not careful ol' Mama of the Earth and Weather, YOU'LL end up on Santa's Naughty List next year, for sure.

And let me tell ya, if this freaky weather doesn't improve, pronto, I'LL put your name on that Naughty List, myself, I will.

I have connections, you know.

MOUSES!
