It's freaking beautiful here. I just went out for a run along the rivers and the trails were just packed with joggers, bikers, roller bladers, etc.

Going out for a ride in the convertible soon. And going to a carnival tonight. YAY SPRING.

Meh. Chance of snow showers this evening in Texas.

This winter has sucked beyond suckiness.

Central Park is insane, but lovely. Just went for an incredibly long walk with the kid, who insisted on getting out the stroller for about a third of it. She will sleep well tonight.

We could get 8+ inches of snow between now and Monday. So weird. It was 70 yesterday, I was enjoying the warm weather. But the snow is pretty, it will warm back up and melt in a day or two and Kansas just lost. So it is a good weekend overall.

What weretable said (you're in Arkie, right?) I spent all afternoon yesterday in shorts and a t-shirt in 70-degree weather playing with my dog. Now it's blustery and shitty. The good thing is, the snow isn't freezing on the roads given how warm the ground was yesterday. But Baylor's in the sweet 16 and the Jayhawks just Jay-choked.

K. Like the flowers in the hair, will not worry about the bonfire, what needs to be done, let it be done!

It is beautiful down here in Georgia. Such an improvement over how it's been lately. It would be even more enjoyable if I could actually take a step or two outside without sneezing and having my eyes burn uncontrollably.

I spent a good hour and a half sitting on my patio reading in the sunshine and it was glorious. (Ritual was earlier in the day.)

Yup, northwest corner of Arkansas.

It was gorgeous here today! Of course I was stuck inside all day working, but it was nice to see sunshine and tank tops through the windows.
