MIDTOWN — Moments after stepping outside for her commute during the city’s first polar vortex, 28-year-old Sarah Perkins boldly announced she was ready for summer.

“I can’t wait for it to get hot again,” declared Perkins. “This city is basically a meat freezer. I would rather deal with Rockefeller Christmas tree tourists than freeze on my way to the subway.”

Perkins’ friends and family were shocked to hear the news.

“She spent May through September complaining about how long the days were. Also, it always gets this cold every year,” said Perkins’ brother DeAndre. “Sarah got her wish, but it sounds like the grass is always greener.”

When Sarah heard her brother’s comments, she rolled her eyes as she shivered. “I don’t know what he’s talking about because in winter the grass is brown.”
