It always snows in April once or twice at least. If it happens in May, I can just say screw it and not go into the office that day. Can't do that in April...

If I was in Calgary, I think I'd put the summers on just based on what I see is the weather out there. Have to wait at least a couple more weeks over here, we still have some snow on the ground as well as lots of sand and potholes.

When I was younger and more nimble, I'd change my tires several times each winter based on what the roads looked like. I just can't be bothered anymore. I spend too much time here.

Got an alignment yesterday morning, and the rims went on last night.

Good thing I got the alignment before I put on the new shoes. The "as found" numbers were mostly out of spec.

I just checked the weather forecast on WX.ca
Beyond a day or two ahead, Environment Canada and AccuWeather can't agree on what's about to happen. AccuWeather thinks it's going to be cold and some snow next week. E.Can thinks it's going to be warm all week.
Screw it. The summers go on today.
