Default Is winter ever going to end? WTF!

As the title says, is this ever going to end WTF?! It was snowing on the way home from work today. I've got such a bug to pull the car out and start getting it ready for the Spring, but the forecast looks crappy for the next several days.

I can't wait to see your C4.....uh, I mean GT.... err, I mean SS back on the road again! Things change so fast that I can't keep up.

When the glacier melts off my driveway, I might have to think about pulling a car outside. I've got a few oil changes to do.

SERIOUSLY! I'm so sick of this ****.

The highs for next week are supposed to be just in the upper 30's and its the last week in flippin March. If I could do some sort of voodoo rain dance to tell mother nature to kiss my *** I would.

My car has been out a few times but I am tired of the cold. We got a little snow yesterday but it has melted already. Today, high of 37, tomorrow high of 30. Last year at this time it was in the 80's.
