You're supposed to save the joy for when it's cold and you want to kill yourself.

Unless, of course, you feel cold in July and just want to kill yourself in general.

In that case, Christmas in July is fine. But you gotta get medication for December.

Well, maybe that is it though. I love the fuck out of the cold. I mean sure, driving in snow sucks, and it can get so cold that you cuss the entire time you are outdoors, but that shit is easy to fix. The only depressing thing about December is that it means that period of time between the end of the September and the beginning of January where everything is awesome and great is now coming to an end. 

But July? Fuck that shit, any heat above 80 Fahrenheit is a sin against flesh, and when it climbs above 100? When the trees are melting and the whole world smells like sweat, it is time to tell me about some joy to the world. It reminds that Nordic blood in me that yes, there is still some chilliness out there somewhere, and some day it will come back and kill summer for me, if only for a little while.
