Oh Mrs. Nature

Dear mother of all the nature stuff,

please give us northern californians a little break from this rain. Don’t get me wrong, I think rain is great, I don’t mind it all that much, it’s just, well, I could really use a day or two of sunshine. I feel physically depressed and soggy. I need to feel like a floaty butterfly. Please give me some sunshine. OK? In return I will promise to make a better effort at utilizing my resources and not consuming so much stuff. I got rid of a creadit card this week and I plan on buying less junk. The junk I don’t want any more will be sold or donated to others so that it won’t end up on a junk pile, atleast for a little while longer. So please, just a little sunshine would be so nice.

I’m sorry us humans are such viruses on your wonderful planet. I know you have some awfully terrible plans in store for us in the pretty near future. That’s fine, the planet is better without us. Just this week, a little sunshine, ok? I’m sorry you have to consider another ice age. I bet you hate it as much as we do.

thanks for listening mother nature, take care of yourself. I’m sorry we always forget your birthday and never send you holiday cards. We are such bad children. So ungreatful.
