Thanks, But No Thanks

Yesterday was the real first day of Spring. The official first of Spring was March 21st (the first day back from Spring Break) but it snowed 6 inches that day. Yesterday, was the first day we went outside in t-shirts. The streets were filled with people that decided to walk instead of take the bus and the frat boys goofed off on their lawns while blasting music. Everyone was enjoying the clear sky and sunshine that rarely revealed itself.
However, I wasn’t as giddy as the people around me. Sure I liked the nice wind hitting my bare arms but I couldn’t help but think about what will come afterwards. High temperatures wake up the sleeping bugs. And I don’t like that. I don’t want to spend my last weeks worrying about this again.
Also, I’m really not looking forward to the rapidly increasing heat. I’ve been enjoying the freezing air for many months and I’m not ready for them to leave just yet. I’ll have PLENTY of heat once I go back home for the summer inshalla.
Well, I can’t be too negative about yesterday. I enjoyed walking. Because I liked looking at the people and how they were making use of that day. Everyone just seemed to be in a better mood.
It will be interesting to see what their reaction to today will be. Rain and thunder. My favorite.
