Spring

Ah, spring is here at last. Not that this past winter was much of a winter—thank you, global warming—but even without snow, it was cold and crappy enough to earn the name "Winter." Today is our first day of 70-degree weather, and I'm loving it. Cassie had a brilliant idea, which you employers interested in boosting employee morale should consider: the first time the mercury goes over 70 each spring, give us the day off. Call it an "Anti-Snow Day." As I walked down the street at lunchtime and felt the sun on my face, I almost felt like I was back in southern California. Except for the honking horns. And the skyscrapers. And the hordes of people. Oh well, at least enough sunlight snuck down between the tall buildings to warm my face.
