Over the winter, you long for pretty days and clean cars. Then when the warm weather comes, you remember a few things you hate about it:

1) Jerks that cut their grass then blow the clippings into the street. Just great on a clean black car.

2) Getting stopped at a traffic light and some a-hole is running a weedeater next to you and you can hear little tink-tink-tink noises where little bits of debris are hitting your car.

3) Wasps and bees flying in your window.

Other than that, I love it.

Pollen and heat is currently what I'm hating. 90 is way too hot this early.

Sweating like crazy working on my S13 coupe yesterday with garage door open, will be the same today after work.

Oh and having to be the person running the lawnmower/weedeater/leafblower. Had to do that for the first time this past Sunday (should have done it before, grass was like a foot high in places). That after having to change the oil in lawnmower/weedeater, and take of lawnmower blades and sharpen them.

Yesterday, I spent hours rearranging my work out building so that I could move the treadmill out of jr's room (was the sewing room until we upgraded jr) in to it.....reminds me that I need to go work out!!!

Only thing I hate about spring is I have to wait 7-8 months to see some snow again. Other than that I love it. I've got sunburned on the weekend. I was working in my backyard and forgot to apply some sunblock. Shaved head and and the first sunny weekend kills me every year.

We don't usually have this hot weather this early. However it is colder a little now and raining and calls for 3 inch of rain for the next 2 days.

Good thing I detailed both cars few days ago.

Me too, but the tinted windows isn't helping the heat or the pollen the last 3 days.. Did you go 35% ? 35% isn't working for me, I don't want to do it but I'm about to get tint on the windshield. I got Llumar but I think it may work out just right on the windshield,

Don't do it man. You'll regret it when you drive at night in the rain. Your visibility will be reduced so much. Also I think it is illegall in all states other than the top few inches of the widshield.

There are good and bad things about all seasons.

In the winter, I have to shovel snow, but not as often as I have to mow the lawn the rest of the year. Outdoors, it's easier to stay warm in the winter than to stay cool in the summer. The worst part of the winter is leaving my G37S in the garage to keep it out of the salt.

Spring and early fall are the worst for my allergies. Spring is also when the bugs start to splatter the nose and windshield.

My favorite season is Indian summer which is the time between the first hard freeze and real winter. The weeds and bugs are all dead, temperatures are neither too hot nor too cold, and the roads are still free of salt.

I love washing your car and then driving to work, getting out and finding the bloodiest bug gut orgy on your front bumper, hood and windshield. Still prefer it over winter any day though.
