spring quarter eve


Seeing over six inches of snow pile up on the ground today, I'm a little sad when I remember that just days ago K & I were basking in the sun on the lawn outside our apartment (and, as Kelly put it, "I sure do love a good 'ole day of basking"). It was a gorgeous 70+ degrees that day, and we found GREAT JOY in flicking off the switch for the heater and opening the windows to let the apartment feel its first dose of fresh air of the year. We even grabbed a blanket and had lunch on the lawn. It was a great day -- the perfect last day of a very relaxing spring break.

And that night, we had a few friends over for a "spring-quarter-eve" party, just a chance to be with other friends before having new translation assignments and research projects loom over our heads. And since we didn't get to see many friends over break, this was a fun chance to catch up and be with people!

And now, two days later, I have one hand full of syllabi and a cup of coffee in the other. Ten more weeks until summer ... here we go!

Todd,
how goes it? I'm 24 hours away from being done with my spring 1 term at Webster, at which point I WILL RETURN YOUR PHONE CALL. Jessica and I would love to hang with you and Kelly anytime.
Sorry for the delay,
A.

I had no idea that it was 70 degrees there just the other day!

Also, what better way to have you hands full than for one hand to be holding coffee.
