#174 - i want spring

yesterday morning i walked out the door and there was snow on the ground. yes, this is still february but it's the portland metro area, it should only snow ONCE A YEAR! it has been such a crazy winter and i am so ready for spring. i've never had spring fever like this before. it's such a tease because the sun keep peeking out and some days are clear as can be (but cold). it hasn't rained much this year and so it's just been strange.

i am totally ready for spring. i want to go on bike rides, have picnics, take a hike, enjoy the sun, be outside and feel healthy/good. the winter has been long! winter is a good excuse to stay inside and do indoor things. i am a wimp and realize that i can do all those above things (except maybe picnics and sun) during the winter...i just don't want to. it is sunny today and may get warm but i am ready for some consistency. maybe the same weather for two days in a row...it may be a reach but hey, that's what i want!

i'm working on and finalizing my taxes right now. i've had them almost done for awhile, just been putting them off. had a big test (which i bonked on), clinicals, school and a bunch of other stuff (dodgeball) so i just didn't finish. i've been playing dodgeball a lot, 3 nights a week of team play, not just pickup. it's such a huge commitment and has become kind of a drag. once i am there it's fun and cool but some days it takes an hour to get there and an hour home so it gets to be long days. still, i enjoy hitting people with rubber balls.

i've been a little under the weather for the past couple weeks too so i think if it were sunny i would be feeling better. plus right now i am at the library sitting next to some smelly dude. i wanna hurl. so i think i'll end this here, now. please....sun....soon!

oh yeah, it's been a super cold winter here too (granted it's still hawaii so i can't complain too much right?). right now there's this huge high pressure system north of hawaii so it's been blowing tons of cold winter winds down to hawaii, high trades like 25 mph constantly for the past week or so. it's so confusing because the wind blows away all the clouds so it's bright and sunny outside but it's still freezing cold because the wind is so cold. and since i've been stuck at home inside all day i haven't been able to get over 75 degrees the past three days. the sun just doesn't get hot enough.

anyway, yeah you'd better go get your ear taken care of, antibiotics for ear infections are wonderful! i wish there was something that worked as fast for shingles, ugh!
