Likes/Dislikes of Winter

I like these things about winter:
- hershey puts out a few kinds of mint-chocolate that they only sell before xmas
- more restaurants have soup, which I eat every day of the year
- fires are nice, and we have a fireplace in philly
- i smell evergreen, pine, etc more, be it naturally or via candle
- xmas lights
- seasonal dark ales, such as New Belgium's 2 Below, an excellent stout

I HATE these things about winter:
- Cold
- The overwhelming, aggravated feeling I get when entering a place with too much heat
- Places with no heat
- Having a Zoolander tickle cough from the change in temperature and dry heat
- Teary eyes from too much heat or the bitter cold
- Headache if I go outside with wet hair
- Xmas songs
- all the rigamarole about buying stuff, and having to watch people be duped into buying un-needed, excessive, or unwanted gifts for people
- the weather prevents me from wanting to go outside, and I can't do what I like to do
