A letter to the big girl in the sky...

Dear Mother Nature,
I'm sure your job is difficult and probably not appreciated by most people. I'd like you to know that I appreciate you and all the beautiful weather you typically bestow upon us Southern Californians. Your generosity allows us to surf, ride bikes, walk/run, or sun tan, all without the fear of a sudden snow storm or tornado. Hell, I just recently bought my first umbrella...I'd say that's a testament to how well you've done your job. That said, I have a complaint. I'm sorry to say that, due to the weather patterns of late, I've begun to despise you a little. The rainy days have outnumbered the sunny days quite significantly, making Southern California look more like Seattle (No offense Seattle but your weather sucks. Great music scene though, if that's any consolation). So, I'd like to request that you, Ms. Nature, return the So Cal weather we have all come to love and expect (and pay through the nose for). If you could do this I would be ever so grateful.

Sincerely yours,

Seymour Waxtop
