Yeah, yeah, it’s Friday. I got busy yesterday and spaced off the haikus. Come on, did anybody really notice? If I didn’t, I’m sure you didn’t either. Sorry, you get them anyway. Buahhaaahaaahaaaa………
Good morning all! And happy February!-Yeah, whatever. Around here that means at least two or three more months of cold and yuck, with a handful of nice days thrown in. Mother Nature loves to taunt the Midwest with just a taste of spring time every so often before she deals out her wrath in tornados and thunderstorms, followed by drought, blistering heat and suffocating humidity. Yep, she’s a bitch.
The holidays are over, so I am so done with winter. I would be happy with a white Christmas-for one day. But no such luck. The winter blahs have set in and set in hard. By this time I am so sick of cold weather, ice and snow that I get kinda grumpy.
It hasn’t even been that bad here this year, but it still makes me want to wear my Gary Busey face~ Just for you Twindaddy, I’m not going to display it. You all know what it looks like. Oh wait, I found another good picture. I’m sorry, I couldn’t resist. Okay, I’m not sorry.
So for those of you who are as sick of winter as I am, please deposit your delightful and charming haikus about how much winter sucks in the comment section. Those of you who love it, please feel free to add your cheerful rebuttal haikus or comments as well.
On with the show!

Winter sucks and blows!
I’m so sick of seeing snow!
Gimme something green!
*****
Wool socks and long johns
Boy that’s sexy I tell ya!
Not enough layers
*****
Everything is gray
Dirty, crunchy ice and snow
Can’t we have some sun?
*****
19-Today’s high
And nice and windy as well
Froze off my fat ass
*****
Hot soup, warm sweaters
Almost keep me warm right now
Tons of blubber helps

Here’s another pic
Of our beloved Gary
Just because I can
Winter’s crushing grip
Squeezes all and reshapes it.
Busey’s head suffers most.
Ha ha ha! Love that! Thanks for the early morning laugh!
Cool and sunny day
Glad to be in Texas now
“Boys! Go out and play!!!!!”
As days get warmer
Mosquitoes hunt for their prey
Covered in bug spray
Fire ant beds emerge
Kids run and play in the grass
“Look out for that bed!!”
Days will soon be hot
Humidity eats at me
“Send me back to Maine!!”
Blecch! Sounds like less fun than bitter cold. Going to make your pitas this weekend! Then I’ll bake them a second time to make chips for my badass chicken and artichoke dip. Superbowl Sunday! All about food and commercials. Too bad there’s a damn football game to crap up my tv while I wait for them.
Mmm. That sound good! I’m making Sweet Potater Tots and Homemade Spicy Pigs In Blankets. Making the sausage and everything. I could care less about either team this year, I’m in it for the day of beer! 😉
LOL, to the first Gary picture I said “ew” out loud, to the second I said “EW STOP” out loud. Here is my offering:
Oh winter, we have a love/hate relationship:
I love watching snow fall in thin sheets,
I hate wiping my nose on my sleeve.
Wiping nose on your sleeve? Now I’m saying EWWWW. Get a hanky already!
Joe always keeps wrinkled tissues in his pockets. Sometimes one’s just not available! Don’t judge me! Could you sew my name into a hanky for me? Then I’d carry it around folded neatly in my pocket.
Hmmm. maybe. I’m not judging you, just having a little fun. I don’t judge peoples. 🙂
I believe it. But I guess I couldn’t blame you if you did see me wipe my snot on my sleeve. 😉
cold cold cold cold cold

did I mention cold?
Maybe once or twice. 😉

Thanks for featuring my post of Gary on this wonderful post. Really enjoyed it.
Any time! And thank you!
Sucking down cocoa
After noon, so add brandy
Soon will not feel cold.
Feet are frozen blocks
Sun. Twenty degrees. Heat wave!
More snow tomorrow.
No read blogs today.
Just yours. Write when feet warm up.
See you tomorrow!
Okay, but I’m answering your email this afternoon. You don’t have to read it now, but I’m going to write it anyway. Sew some rice in a canvas bag and put it in the microwave. Put your feet on that, it’ll keep them nice and toasty. 🙂
I noticed!!! I kept refreshing your page all day long because for once I remembered on a Thursday about the haiku madness good times. But, nooooooo, no haiku for me.
I love the winter,
So send me all of your snow.
Snowmen I will make.
I love the winter,
The cold is “where it is at.”
Heat makes me melty.
I love the winter.
California is my home.
So what do I know?
Where have haikus gone?
Today is Thursday I think,
But I could be wrong.
Cheeky said: “Change time…”
And perhaps she ditched huikus?
That is just my luck.
Awww, thanks for remembering. I just have way too many irons in the fire to blog much these days, and I wasn’t able to to do one today. I’ll try really hard to make sure we have our regular haiku hijinx next week again. 🙂
Wooohooo!
Of course, next week I’ll probably forget to check on Thursday. That’s how these things go.
Don’t forget to wear a glove or something when you are pulling your irons out of the fire.
Next Thursday is also Valentine’s Day. If you only remember one thing, remember that! Makes for a happy wife.
Oh but I was lucky in love… for she sees it as the hallmark holiday it is and relieves me of any obligation for a gift or a card of anything like that. It probably helps that we work almost opposite schedules so I never get to see her on holidays like V-day. But… because it’s me… I probably will write her a poem or something. I’m silly like that.
That’s not silly, it’s adorable.
*blushes* *dimple showing* Whoooooo me?
