Today I woke up, sleeping under a comforter, blanket, and sheets shivering cold having the realization that winter is approaching. This feeling always puts me in a state of disgust. I am not ready for this season, as it is my least favorite. I am not ready for the struggle every morning to get out of a bed warmed by my heating blanket to step onto an ice cold wood floor. I am not ready for the mornings I have to get up an extra twenty minutes to scrap the solid ice off my windshield and heat my car. Most of all, I am definitely not ready for the stupidity of Michigan drivers sliding all over the road.
I am not the best driver by any means, but for some reason have been able to control my driving better then the majority of Michigan drivers each winter. I am not sure why, but Michigan drivers seem to have amnesia on how to drive during the first snowstorm of each year. Whoever thought it was a good idea to speed down a snowy road covered with black ice, jotting through the lanes of traffic, was sadly mistaken. My other favorite is the car that appears to be a first-time driver in the snow, going 5 mph holding up all sorts of traffic. These extremes seem to litter the road, causing numerous accidents throughout the season. Then we have the gawkers of the accidents who decide to slam on their brakes to look at the crash, causing other accidents in the act. So please winter, can we just skip the snow this season?
