"Look at the frost on the window, Micah! How cold out it must be!"
"Yeah, it's like that this time of year, Z. Makes you hate to go outside."
"Well,
we gotta go, Micah. Put on your hat and coat. And hat and coat. And
hat and coat."
"You
too, Z. Boy that's a thick coat; where'd you get it?"
"Made
it from the wool of half a dozen very hirsute sheep."
“Oh my
god, it's freezing out here! It must be minus 80 degrees!”
“Sure
wish we lived on a planet that only had four seasons, Micah. Like Earth.”
“Right, Zontar! Winter's bad enough; schlossertime's a killer!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yep, next time you think it's too darn cold in winter, just be thankful we don't have schlossertime on Earth. It's so cold then that the holiday that falls during schlossertime features a visit from Old Father Anti Freeze.
The other Friday Fictioneers' takes on the picture prompt above are available right here. And available for you winter, spring, summer, and schlosser!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to put on my hat and coat. And hat and coat. And hat and coat.
