Some people find fall depressing
“Some people find fall depressing, others hate spring. I've always
been a spring person myself. All that growth, you can feel Nature
groaning, the old bitch; she doesn't want to do it, not again, no,
anything but that, but she has to. It's a fucking torture rack, all that
budding and pushing, the sap up the tree trunks, the weeds and the
insects getting set to fight it out once again, the seeds trying to
remember how the hell the DNA is supposed to go, all that competition
for a little bit of nitrogen; Christ, it's cruel.”
