Well maybe you should turn the thing off and go outside more often, or just lower your OC a bit ;)

Fall > other seasons. Unfortunately, Fall in Colorado is nowhere near as spectacular as it was in Northern Wisconsin. I've always wanted to stay in the Northeast during fall. I bet Maine is ridiculous with the colors.

I hate summer because of the heat. I love cold weather.

However, I do enjoy camping in the summer, and hitting up 4x4 trails, etc. So I do like summer for that.

But otherwise, hate it.

No school, it's warm outside, lots of holidays, etc. Now, I'm in Kahleeforneeya's Central Valley where it's too fucking hot, there's too many bugs, too many illegals, (yes, they're another seasonal pest like skeeters) ;) Usually, around the end of July to mid-August, we get hit by extreme heat for a week or two, (over 105) and my light bill goes through the roof. ($250-$350) I'm just glad this is a VERY dry heat, instead of what most people east of the Rocky Mountains have to endure.

I used to live in the valley. The summer before I moved here (Colorado, east of the rockies), our July in CA - the whole damned month was like 110°. I finally couldn't take it anymore and left.

The summers here aren't nearly as bad as the valley. It does get hot, but not 110 hot most of the time, and usually there are the cooler days mixed in.

Not my favorite. Here in KC it gets up to 100 degrees and humid on a good summer day. My ideal temp is like 70-75 degrees with a nice breeze.

summer kind of blows. i could care less about heat. in fact, i dont like the heat. id rather a nice 70 degree sunny and breezy day. something comfortable to be in.

and living in florida, its terrible. the way i see it is, if you break a sweat just walking to your mailbox, thats too damn hot. you didnt earn that sweat, you simply walked... to a mailbox. thats weaksauce and TOO HOT
