The Start of Winter

Is it ever going to get light today? Do I really have to make the effort of starting my day if the world isn't going to join in?

There's something about the start of winter that makes me understand why animals hibernate. It's not to do with surviving winter and avoiding food shortages, it's because they can't be arsed. "Should I get up and hunt for, whatever it is I eat as I'm a bear? Nah, I think I'll just sleep in."
