You'll never feel lonely when you have a big screenful of MB up in your face.

Can't you buy a dehumidifier?

A romantic calm that's I've always felt would be spent best at someone's side; be it a close friend or a lover. I have neither currently, but I have myself. And the feeling of spending this season alone is just as powerful emotionally as with someone I love. Because I feel longing, intense longing. I feel alive.

I love this! Early spring in the south does indeed conjure a sort of bone-deep, dolorous-yet-pleasurable state of longing, (makes me want to read Keats and Flannery O'Connor and drink moonshine on the porch) especially in the evenings with its cicada songs and honeysuckle fumes. It demands proper musical accompaniment, too.
..Although in a mere two months the heat will be unbearable.

You're lucky, having all of that greenery around you! My aunt lives there and describes it as being "suffocated by trees" which sounds like heaven.

The worst is when the humidity is unbearable but the sky is grey and cloudy and it could rain any minute.

I'd take a picture of the woods in my backyard but it's too dark out right now! I love the greenery around here.

This post is expertly written as well! The heat does get AWFUL here so I understand that. I do remember a few years back though I was at one of my brother's soccer games and got bored so I sat in the car. Within a few minutes I curiously started feeling odd, then looking down realized I was drenched in sweat. I suppose I've become immune to NC's weather, lmao. The old VU line is definitely true. "Who just got back from Carolina/She said she didn't like the weather" It seems like it changes every damn day here, it's insufferable and you can never get used to the abrupt changes in temperature and humidity.

Texas, how it is in my mind, has a certain appeal to it as well, but I suppose it's mostly screen-fed. Stringed lantern lit outdoor diners at dusk, with intimate live Americana playing, people softly chatting away, deeply enamored in each other and with life. This image alone would make me move to Austin if that was truly the case.
