Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for August 09, 2019

Fall is my favorite time of year. It’s at that sweet point where it’s too cold for bugs and heat, but at the same time there’s no snow blocking the roads.

If it’s as hot as can be, and as cold as can be, then there is no doubt that the seasons name must be Canby.

I’ve been waiting for both fall and winter ( mostly winter) since summer started.

Summer > *

Since when does logic have anything to do with it when you’re a unicorn with magic?

Yesterday, she wanted endless summer. Now she likes autumn and wearing coats? Capricious girl, our Phoebe.

You could petition the universe for Super Season, but the paperwork is murder!

I’ve kind of felt that way before. Specifically, I’ve wished we could have summer’s sunlight to counter the winter cold, and vice-versa. But apparently that’s “unscientific” and “not the way weather works”.

I relate to most of Phoebe’s desires, but having to bundle up is just a burden to me.

(enjoys thinking about the dialogue of the cartoon)

If keeping a unicorn makes you realistic, then I hate to think what keeping a fairy would make you…

I prefer winter. I find summer far too annoying and while both spring and autumn can be nice to look at, they are a bit too unpredictable.

If I could keep it in Autumn I’d be happy. Though winter is quite a bit more mild now that it was 30 years ago. Summers are brutal.
