Winter is here. Well, its been here, for way too long. This is not new news to us, but that doesn't mean we're more OK with it than the winter before, or the one before that. Living in the Midwest has its perks, and getting to experience different weather each season can sometimes be fun. But if we're being honest, we are so over you, Winter. Pack your bags and take your hair destructive, skin drying, shoe ruining weather with you. Here are 12 signs that you cannot take another day in this horrible snow globe of a region called the Midwest during the winter.
1. All of your shoes are stained with salt
And you don’t even care enough to try to clean them again.
2. You’ve lost at least three pairs of gloves and have decided to just give up
Instead, you keep your hands in your pockets until winter is over rather than buying a new pair.
3. You carry tissues with you everywhere you go
Because you know your nose is going to be running for an hour after a 10-minute walk in this tundra we call the Midwest.
4. You find yourself online shopping for spring clothes
Even though you know in reality you won’t get to wear them for months.
5. If you want that iced coffee you get that iced coffee,
And quickly regret it on your walk to wherever you are going.
8. You’ve become a layering master
By now you know which nine articles of clothing will go together perfectly.
9. And when you get inside
You are able to rip off seven of those layers in record timing to avoid having a heat stroke.
10. You’ve booked a trip to somewhere much warmer for Spring Break.
11. And your countdown on your phone is your saving grace on those days when you can’t feel your face.
12. But you know you’ll make it out alive, you always do.
And that's because you are Beyoncé, and the rest of the world is the Midwest winters.
