Spring is here!

Ahh the first day of spring and spring break. It feels superb, and a little strange at the same time. I have a giant sense of relief, but also a nagging empty spot where all my scholastical responsibilities and their disapproving eyes once rested.

I usually take a day or so to relax, then wonder what I am going to do with my time. But this time, I know. I have a stack of books waiting to be read: The Adventures of Augie March, ChiRunning, A People's History of the United States, Anatomy of the Spirit; a rockin bicycle currently en-route from Tucson, and an obscenely grimy kitchen that is on the verge of being positively vomititious. And with a forecast with highs in the 50's-60's, a vacation couldn't be more splendidly timed.

Happy spring/spring break, one and all! I don't know about you, but if I play my cards right, I might get taken out to dinner tonight...
