Michiganders and The Sun: we barely knew each other

[Funk]

Does weather have a big effect on how people feel and act? Here in Michigan it has been cloudy for at least five days now, and everyone seems to be tired and cranky. Unfortunately, the next projected day for ample sunshine in this state may not come until over a week from now. I'm thinking about buying a basking light.

It certainly does, love-muffin.

Here in Oklahoma, windy days are our bane. We get hot days, but not as hot as Texas. We get cold days, but not as cold as Michigan. Or Canada, for that matter. When the wind is severely high, everyone's grumpy and no one wants to go outside and people are likely to skip work. It also doesn't help that the wind makes it feel like -20 in the winter months. Although I've been walking around in short sleeves with no jackets all week. The week before it was mighty frigid, though, because the wind was like "***** SLAP!"

I love clouds

When its constant overcast for several days, I can get pretty melancholy. But if its stormy for several days, it doesnt bother me that much. I dont understand why certain clouds affect me more than others. I think its because when it raining, the sound is nice and the weather outside is active. Not just grey.

We get nor-easters around this time of year. I really ****ing hate those. It doesnt rain really, its just overcast and windy and just... ****ty, depressing weather.

New England has crappy weather just about all year long.
Sure we have sunny days, hot days but it's usually either raining, snowing and generally cloudy.

I think a big contributor to everyone in this state's gloomy mood is the fact that since last wednesday, we have no snow, just mud. mud everywhere.

Yesterday it was just DANK in Jersey. All of the outdoors was like a big dungeon.

Not today though. Sun is shinin' in the sky, there ain't a cloud in sight. It's stopped rainin', everybody's in a play.


And don't you know, it's a beautiful new day... -ay, -ay, -ay.

Re: Michiganders and The Sun: we barely knew each other

The sun shines about, like, 74% of the time in Nevada.

The rest is some rain.

Sunny days are when I'm mostly awake, cloudy days make me sleep anywhere.

Re: Michiganders and The Sun: we barely knew each other

Call me weird, but I seem to be happier the longer it stays either overcast or stormy, and I tend to get more depressed the sunnier it gets.

Snow + Cold + Dry + Lots of Sun = EVIL

That **** blinds me and I cannot stand cold one bit. To make maters worse, dry air screws up my sinuses, and I sunburn very easily(It has happened in winter before, odd it may seem to some).

I like it rainy, very warm, humid, and either cloudy and/or night. I especially love the weather when it rains.

I can't stand this temperate climate. I prefer the weather to be more steady and predictable, not 70 degrees and cloudy with moderate humidity one day and -20, snow, dry, and sunny a week later. The Florida Everglades and Louisiana bayous might be more up my alley. As if it is sunny outside, there are a lot of warm, dark places rest, and so many that you could actually walk around without contacting much light. In the winter, rarely does it get down to freezing there, at least no where near as often as in America's asscrack(the midwest states that use the Mississippi River as a border).

Re: Michiganders and The Sun: we barely knew each other

Yeah, I was gonna say... come to Tex-ass, where the sun melts your face year round!

[The Toecutter]

Re: Michiganders and The Sun: we barely knew each other

Yes, I remember when Nixon gave an account of just how scary the Tex-ASS sun can get. It will boil frogs, melt car interiors, set wood on fire, and kill old people.
