sometimes i think we all have selective amnesia about our living situations so that we can maintain our homeostasis . . .
for example, i hate snow. i hate cold. winter is pretty long and crappy here but today it's sunny and 70 degrees and i'm having a tough time actually remembering my winterly discomfort.
of course, i have been longing for spring and summer. i want to see flowers and trees and wear my cute tiny spring jackets and go to the beach . . . with all of that to distract me i had forgotten that the city (pretty much the whole city) smells like urine once the temp goes over 70degrees. i guess you can't expect the city to perpetually smells like chocolate and flowers, especially when sitting next to a homeless man.
i'll acclimate and then forget. i'm sure there are annoying things i have forgotten about fall and winter already . . . i both love and am afraid of the fact that my brain is so smart that it can trick me.
