Spring is So Close, I Can Smell it

I actually left my apartment without a jacket or coat this morning. I was a little apprehensive that I would be freezing since I am also wearing a skirt but there was no shock of cold air as I walked out the door. Lovely.

Sitting at my desk, the front door is open and the smell of freshly cut grass is drifting in and creating oodles of happiness. It makes me wonder if they make a candle with the fresh cut grass scent. I would definitely rank that very high up on my list of favorite smells and if they could capture the smell well, I would buy it and me thinks other people would as well.

I have also noticed that it is getting lighter earlier in the morning, it is no longer pitch black when I wake up but the sky is a mauvy/gray, and the sun is staying out later too. Longer days make me happier and also more productive. Cold weather and dark days depress me, but I always am an overall happier person in the warmer months. I am also even more excited about my online shopping spree that should arrive this week since I purchased all warm weather clothes, woo hoo!

I could write an enormous list of why I love warm weather but I will leave it to those items I mentioned above. The giddyness should come through clearly enough:)

Update: In fact they do make candles with a fresh cut grass scent. Everything Smells.Com is the name of the website and they have some other very odd scents like Avacado (do avacados even smell??), Olive oil (ditto previous comment), Cannibus (um, sort of odd usually you are trying to mask that smell) and a lot of other normal scents.

Cheers to Mr. Bernstein

This just warms my heart and brings a tear to my eye. I am always impressed with writers who get published (although there are some craptastic books that are in print too) because it seems like such a difficult and painstaking process, but Mr. Bernstein is especially impressive. I think Oprah may have her next book club book. Lets just hope his book isn't completely fabricated because I hear that really pisses the Big O off.



Training: nada (great start eh?)
