I’m so sorry. I should have known better. I don’t know what I was thinking.

I just wanted a nice winter coat, something that would keep me warm when it’s 10F and windy. Something that wasn’t the goofy blue parka I’ve had since I was a high school sophomore. I wanted it, and I failed to consider the consequences of my actions.

The temperature yesterday was in the sixties. In New Hampshire. In January. And the only conclusion I can draw is that, much like it doesn’t rain if you only remember to bring an umbrella, my purchase of a winter coat has jinxed our chance for proper winter weather.

I am so sorry.
