Spring has sprung!

Hello my darling readers,

I'm sorry I've been away for so long. February may be the shortest month of the year, but it was chock full'o'stuff for me.

My favorite Mal stayed with me for 10 days last month working on this. So cool. When she wasn't hiding behind telephone poles and staking Ryan Phillippe (yes, doing that was actually part of her job), she and I enjoyed being lazy, watched lots of so-bad-it's-good TV, went outlet shopping and, in general, were out recockulous selves.

In addition to the fabulous-ness of having Mal around for all of that time, I realized how much I miss having roommates and how eager I am to move into a 2 bedroom apartment when my current lease ends in May. This is where I'm probably moving to, fyi.

I also wandered up to CMU (my fourth visit since graduating) for Mal's senior show which was fabulous. As always it was wonderful to see my sisters (including Slummy!), although my visit was too short! In related news, Zeta Psi Sigma officially decided to join Alpha Chi Omega two weeks ago. I'm very excited. I'm looking forward to initiating and being really involved with alumnae stuff here in the DC area. I'm so envious of my undergraduate sisters who are enjoying a second new member period. Crazy. Can't wait to see you all at Carnival!

My parents also came down to visit in February. After everything that they've been through in the past year, it was really nice to spend time with them. We are slowly going through all of the Smithsonian museums whenever they visit. This time we went to the Natural History museum. Awesome. Dinosaurs are cool. But not as cool as the Space Shuttle.

So, basically, I didn't have a free weekend in February. Not that I was upset with my company. But, at the same time, I did approximately nothing last weekend and it was glorious!

So, the title of this post is "Spring has sprung" and I haven't even mentioned anything about that yet. Sorry! Okay, here it is: Spring has finally come to DC. Hooray! I drove home with my car's windows open last night and it was fabulous! It's about 70 degrees outside right now, mostly sunny and a little bit breezy. In other words, PERFECTION! I didn't wear a jacket to work for the first time since October or so. This kind of weather puts me in such a good mood. Love it!

In other news, I'm lucky that exclamation points aren't rationed. :)

Okay, more frequent posts in the future. Promise. In the meantime, I hope you all are enjoying fabulous weather as well.

Less than three,
Sara

Glad to see you are back! It's too bad I missed you on your trips back to CMU. Maybe I will catch you during carnival. I'm jealous too about everyone getting to be New Members again with Alpha Chi. I wish I was still around. Oh and I'm glad they don't ration exclamation points either!

Thanks Misha! Yes, we definitely have to see each other during Carnival.

I <3 exclamation points!
