Donahue<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Years ago (last year) I was foolish. I claimed to love winter and snow, and I condemned sunlight and warmth like the poster-woman for an unoriginal Hot Topic campaign. Now, older and in desperate need of vitamin D, heat, and the option of not having to wear a coat, I join the masses in our collective distaste for what\u2019s happening: early winter. It\u2019s here, it\u2019s probably not going anywhere, and having recently vowed not to forsake my shoes (I am <em>not<\/em> ready for boots, not even a little bit), I am upset.<\/p>\n<p>So here\u2019s how I\u2019m coping, and I suggest you do, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Know that we, as a people, are all miserable<\/strong><br \/>\nThere\u2019s something so comforting about knowing that we\u2019re all in something terrible together. This feeling crops up when we\u2019re all stuck watching a movie that\u2019s too long and arguably bad, it recently reared its head when Ricky Gervais was announced as this year\u2019s Golden Globes host, and it originated when two strangers made eye contact in line at a store in regards to a difficult customer berating a sales attendant \u2013 only to be made stronger when you catch the eye of that sales associate and wordlessly ask, \u201cAre you okay?\u201d It is the feeling of, \u201cI am bummed out, but I\u2019m not the only one, thank heavens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Because right now, you are only alone if you\u2019re thriving in snow and freezing temperatures in mid-November. The rest of us? We didn\u2019t ask for this. We didn\u2019t need it. Most of us would prefer it to rain all the way to December 25 and then get so cold that it can\u2019t actually snow. But that didn\u2019t happen. And instead, we\u2019re living a collective truth in which we sometimes forget it was only October two weeks ago. And then we weep, united by a chorus of tears and muffled screams of \u201cno\u201d and \u201cwhy.\u201d Our new national anthem, bless us everyone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lean into the holidays, maybe?<\/strong><br \/>\nUgh. Yes, Christmas is coming, and true, the Santa Claus parades are scheduled to launch. But as much as I love writing Christmas cards with the intention of making everybody I\u2019ve ever met realize they now need to mail me one (I\u2019m evil?), I do not love forced fun.<\/p>\n<p>So I say skip the forced fun. Skip the merriment and the pressure to make cookies shaped like small homes. Instead, lean into the best parts as a coping mechanism: eat shrimp rings for dinner, consume entire advent calendars in one sitting, skip work to watch <em>Last Christmas<\/em>because honestly why not, you deserve this, we\u2019re all so tired. I\u2019ve eaten two Swiss Chalet festive specials since the start of November, and by the end of the month, I plan to multiple that number by 62. Am I reckless? Yes. Will it get me through this cold, snowy abyss? Perhaps. But I do what I want, and the holidays fall under that umbrella. I will not force Secret Santa on my loved ones, but I recently poured holiday chocolate into a candy dish and I do not intend to share it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Live in Denial<\/strong><br \/>\nMaybe I\u2019ve lost my mind since crashing my car last week (I have), but I love and support denial in a way that is likely unhealthy. That said, it works. And so as we gaze out upon the snow and ice, might I suggest we pretend it isn\u2019t happening. Might I suggest we wear sneakers until we physically cannot and abandon full-length jeans until we pass away. Dare I recommend doing what dads and uncles have done over decades a.k.a. wearing winter coats with shorts and loafers. Drive with the windows down with the heat cranked full-blast on your feet. Order lemonade despite it being completely bizarre to pass up a delicious, warm apple cider. Listen to every \u201csong of the summer\u201d and post about how much you love fall.<\/p>\n<p>We are in the worst season during a terrible time, and it is up to us to create our own realities. My reality will be writing Christmas cards tonight in front of <em>Billions<\/em>, likely while eating Hawaiian pizza because I am an adult who makes my own choices. I will wear a vest instead of a coat when I go outside, and whisper \u201cI own you\u201d to my cookies and cream advent calendar because I\u2019m not ready to begin it yet, but want it to know that <em>I could<\/em>. Then, at some point, I will wear sneakers \u2013 likely foolishly. But it won\u2019t matter because you will be doing the same thing, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Need a little more Anne?
