Favorite season? :)

In the spirit of the First Day of July, I thought I'd ask what your favorite season is. Is it summer, with it's hot days and long nights? Spring, with fresh flowers in bloom and the promise of rain? Is it winter, with frosty windows and mugs of warm drinks? Or is it fall, with crisp days and a hint of chill?

I have to say I love each of them for what they are, though winter is gradually sliding towards the bottom of my list. I like winter all through December, but once January hits and New Years is over... winter can go away.

You are a writer, no doubt about it. How did you manage to make ALL of the seasons sound so appealing?

I like all of them, but summer is my least favorite. Because... it's so HOT. And I get headaches when I get really hot, so if I'm not inside or in a pool, I have a perpetual headache. I would love to love summer, though. I just wish it wasn't so hot.

@Twin *HUGE HUG* You need to move north. *nods knowingly* Or how about this-- Korea!? Because really, Texas is not a good place to be with you and those awful headaches. :'( *feels so sorry for you*

I hate heat too. But again, it's more of a near-the-end-of-a-season that I start really wanting summer to leave. Times like now, when July is just starting, I'm still loving every bit of summer.

If y'all hate heat, DON'T come to Florida. It's been high 90s-low 100s for two weeks now, PLUS 112% humidity....so, not fun.

Me, I'm a fall girl. I love the way color explodes everywhere you look--golds, red, oranges. I love the sound of fallen leaves crunching underneath your feet. I love the smell of a fireplace's first burn of the season. And I love the crispness of the air, cold enough to catch your attention, but still welcoming enough to pull you outside into the soft sunlight.


(Sigh, now I'm homesick.... )

@Serena That sounds AWFUL. It's often very humid where I live too, so I can empathize! (Though we're lucky right now to have a rare drop in humidity. It's WONDERFUL outside!)

*stares* You just totally made me want fall. WRITERS!

@Twin Oh, you're brilliant. xP Apparently it's only like, 86 degrees there. *So. Utterly. Jealous.*
Yeah. Headaches = no fun. But I'm used to 'em.

The only reason I will ever come to Florida is for Sea Base, in the Florida Keys. Otherwise I'm JUST fine with staying away.

*smiles at Twin* Yes. It's 89 degrees now, but it's still lovely outside.

And Disney. You forgot Disney World. That's a good reason to come, no?

That's where I work, actually. In the greenhouses at The Land pavilion in Epcot. Been there 8 years and still loving it!

No way!! What an exciting job!! That has to make the humidity a LITTLE bit worth it. Even a little..??

Ask me on a day when a snake hasn't just crawled into my office....

A ... snake. My. I know one state I won't be living in. *edges away*

Fall! It's the prettiest. Chill enough to wear a jacket, with that crispness in the air and falling leaves and...yes. The best season.

I've never been to Disney World, so that really means nothing to me. Oddly enough, I've never really wanted to go, either. *cough*

And if there are snakes crawling into offices, that doesn't encourage me to go.

@Amanda YES. Fall is WONDERFUL. Just a bite of cold, no bugs(the heat from the summer's gone and killed them all )

@Amanda I agree. It IS wonderful.

@Constance O_O Okay... I guess I can understand that. Not really, but I'll try. The one time I was at Disney was so amazing. I'd love to go back.

Well... I can't judge until I've been. I just know I usually prefer nature-type famous places. But who knows, maybe I'd love it?
