Whether (or not) Report

Whoever is weary of waiting for spring, raise your hand. No, not that one. The one with the wool glove on it.

I can only speak for the East Coast, but I'm tired of all the temperature teasing. Come on, already - where's the March "out like a lamb" we are promised by the proverb? We get one or two days of 60ish temperatures, then a whoosh of cold, then snow flurries...and we can only conclude that Spring is toying with us, taking her sweet time to be fully sprung and laughing at the outfits we concoct during this in-between time.  

Should we dress for morning or afternoon temps? Boots or not? Is a down jacket over shorts too edgy? Dare we venture out in sandals for a pedicure on a warm day, or will we be mocked by the falling mercury in the thermometer's glass? 

One thing I know for sure - there's an infallible method to keep warmer weather at bay. Just pack all your winter clothes up  and store them for next year. And then listen closely for the seasonal laughter that will surely be woven into the ice storm that follows.
