Top 10 Reasons We're Over the Snow
This is the South, gosh darn it, and we're sick of the snow. Here's why:

1. Lack of Boots- Between the entire Richmond.com staff, we own 73 pairs of flip-flops and two pairs of boots. Plus, we can't find boots anywhere. Target has moved on to spring season and is pushing flip-flops and bikinis, but no boots or gloves. We saw random people wandering around Willow Lawn, shouting, "Gloves! Where are all the gloves!"

2. Icicles of Death- Almost being impaled by falling icicles or slipping on ice is getting old.

3. Cabin Fever- We're going stir crazy! This is the South, people. We live below the Mason-Dixon line for a reason.

4. No Parking- The snow is taking up prime parking spaces. And sometimes people even park next to them, parking in the actual street.

5. Those Darn Kids!- Suffering those pesky kids throwing snowballs, sledding and enjoying a day off from school while we still have to go in to work and keep a desk warm.

6. Spring- Because we're eager for the 2.5 days of nice Richmond "spring" weather before it turns to a boiling 98 degrees with 100 percent humidity.

7. The Prolonged Panic- We'd like to be able to go to the grocery store again without having to fight people for Hot Pockets!

8. Dirty, Dirty, Dirty- The sand and salt spread on the roads to help keep us safe has just turned into a mess. My car is a mess. The bottom of my shoes are a mess when I step into the house. Everything is a mess.

9. The Roads- Come on Richmond, sweep the &%&@! streets already.

10. Edits- Because we had to cut about 75 things from this list in order to get it to 10. We never thought we'd say it, but we Richmonders are sick of the snow! Bring on the sweltering summer... we're ready to complain about that now!
