Cameron is an illustrator hailing from Ohio. When she’s not drawing, she’s probably very, very quietly having loud thoughts about: queer things, her eventual shop, what to watch next on Netflix, food, names for her future pets, and tumblr.
Cameron has written 76 articles for us.
Number 8 made me laugh. Unfortunately my wrong temperature room is the bathroom.
That one room. haa spot on!
Last winter that one room was our entire apartment because I guess old radiators that spew rust water at their best aren’t terribly efficient. WHO KNEW!
It’s always the bathroom for me too! I hate stepping out of the shower with goosebumps.
Me too. Icy toilet seat is the worst.
I used to be able to see my breath in the bathroom in my old apartment. Terrible after the water heater broke and I had to take cold showers on top of that for a week.
Oof mine is my bedroom in my current place! The worst. I want to read at night and my hands freeze outside the covers.
I think this is a universal truth. :(
I feel this deep in my soul. #2 is my perminate state all winter
But i cant help but post something sunny and warm! Lol!!
Viv, I love you. But I HATE YOU. But I love you.
(but i hate you, but i love you, but…)
Come have a winter here in LA. We can go hang by the beach ROFL
But such cute hat hair!
Yup! I’m now going to spend this winter waiting for cute women to take off their beanies.
i’m still waiting for this. i love winter weather… it’s currently 75 degrees outside and i’m honestly a little afraid.
same.

Its been warm all week and I’m afraid we wont get snow this christmas
#3 is me. Grinches unite.
The only thing I like about Christmas is getting lightly boozy on winter cocktails and watching The Muppet Christmas Carol.
this is a truly wonderful tradition i may borrow this year.
Hahaha “I wasn’t drawn with enough fingers for this”! At least gloves are a tiny bit better than mittens…
That one cracked me up too!
Oh, I knew 2 so well, especially at one place – very old construction, solid stone, so I’d routinely wake up to ice on the windows in winter. On the inside. =:P
Despite 1 (though, being in an apartment in Minneapolis, not far from Dinkytown – yes, really – we didn’t have to worry about driveways or cars), I still really miss actual winters. Pretty much everywhere else I’ve lived has been relentlessly temperate, with possibly a day or two’s snow, which inevitably causes the entire locality to grind (or rather, slither) to a halt with the same disbelief as LA drivers witnessing rainfall.
9 is a.. *cough* nuisance when it comes to winter wildlife photography. Fiddling with DSLR buttons and dials with any kind of meaningfully warm glove on is a touch challenging. (Clearly, what Nikon needs to do is offer an internal heater option. Sentimentally adorable chimney optional)
I shall, of course, quietly disagree with 4, for obvious reasons. ^_^
We’re experiencing a WINTER for the first time in a while here in NorCal. I don’t have the wardrobe for this. Like, I forgot that long underwear was a thing and was kinda panicked about how I was going to make it through the season with just yoga pants and sweatpants.
And, having never personally celebrated Christmas, I am feeling unprecedented level of Grinchyness. Normally, I’m like “meh,” this year I’m all “cultural oppression!!!!1!”
I am probably the asshole who assisted in inspiring #5.
I am sorry, Cameron. Love you.
It was you and Viv. And both of you knew it.
I was going to type something about having to swat mosquitoes in December, but
a) that’s a bit rare where I live
and
b) snow is just too evil, nothing I can think that’s not a major storm system or horrid natural cataclysm is as evil as snow is to me.
Fuck snow, there is nothing magical about wet, cold, white deathliness that can hide rocks, ditches and corpses or fall off a mountainside and crush/smother you.
Getting locked out of your house in your pajamas cause you thought it would be quick. Then the door shut before you remembered it was locked.
Ugh, opposite problems in the Southern Hemisphere. This week’s forecast is 34-34-36-39-39-43 (93-96-102-107 fahrenheit). Fancy a swap like in that British comedy movie featuring Cameron Diaz?
