Summer Doesn't Exist in Canada

Here it is, the end of August, and I am drinking hot chocolate out of a mug sporting the slogan "Let it Snow! - C'est l'Hiver!" (which, if you have any knowledge of French, you will know that the two don't actually mean the same thing) and leafing through the Sears Wishbook, which arrived this morning.

I only wish I were kidding.
