It's quite surreal actually, January and February went really slow, but wasn't it March 1 just yesterday?

Ah, not me - but I have done something similar.
Someone I worked with came up behind me while I was standing in a shop and said "'scuse me sir - can you spare some money?" - so I automatically said "no..." in that special, flat and disinterested voice I reserved for those really annoying beggar-types actually in tube carriages.
I didn't even look round first.
Or, when being introduced to someone (this is in a professional, deadly serious IT environment) they say "Hello - how are you?" or whatever and then hold out their hand - so I say "Hi!" and give them a small wave? 
Gah - it makes my toes curl thinking of that...

Yeah, I really feel like it was.
I agree about January and February. They seem kind of like a blur.
But I remember December very well. That feels like it was about three months ago.

 I can just imagine the small wave and the look on the other persons face! |

Heh - well "wave" is stretching a point really - it was more of a quick hand-flip. 
They then gave me one of those long, weird looks - the sort you just know they're wondering what sort of an idiot they're dealing with, and the world stops until someone else coughs or says something to break it.
What is it with this grabbing appendages thing?!

I'm not even in the desert.
I hate weather like this.

Cornflake - I met someone at church on Sunday and they shook my hand and i kind of pulled this face - it makes me feel awkward for some reason! |

Not bad 
I'm no longer in the desert, but I wish I were and hope to be again soon. I love that weather.

I prefer cool weather over warm weather... with cool weather, you can dress so you can be as warm as needed, but with warm weather, there's a minimum of how much you can wear and sometimes it's too much.
