I'm sitting at Starbucks getting some work done for my scholarly project. Starbucks has this $3.95 special where you get a tall latte and either a cinnamon coffee cake or an oatmeal. If you use your registered Starbucks card, you can get a frou-frou latte (soy with 1pump sugar-free vanilla, if you're me) for no extra charge. And if you haven't had it, I will tell you first hand that Starbucks "perfect oatmeal" is really, truly, deliciously perfect.
God, it's beautiful out. It's 65F and sunny out, and so damn gorgeous. I love spring, especially when it comes a bit early (even if it is just a flirty tease). In college this would be the day that all the girls in the high-rise dorms would put on some skanky outfits with high heels so that you could look up their skirt as they walked over the 38th street bridge. Then after classes they'd lay out on the lawn in their bikinis and pasty white skin... naaasttyy. Ah, college.
Soon it'll be like this all the time (can you imagine!?), and winter will be a thing of the past. And with good weather comes green leaves and pretty flowers, and birthdays!, and just good times in general. Less time spent indoors wishing the sun would stay out longer. This morning, I went for my first outdoor run of 2009 under a cloudy sky threatening rain. It was warm enough that I regretted wearing long sleeves. The run kicked my ass but it felt so lovely nonetheless. Somehow good weather just makes everything better.
Happy early spring to all :)
