the ides of march
it seems we skipped spring and went straight from "winter" to summer. [winter is in quotation marks because it's mostly a fake winter in southern california. it's an extended fall.]

just two nights ago, i slept in several layers of silk thermal underwear, with two comforters, a blanket, and a beanie. and it was only a few weeks ago that i had to use a hot water bottle, too. [just because i put "winter" in quotation marks doesn't mean i'm not a wuss.]

however, last night, it was time to break out the skimpy little pajamas. we kicked off most of the blankets and had the window wide open all night long.

i suddenly became very aware of my negelected toenails and other such unkempt things that don't usually bother me until at least june.

to top it off, i broke a sweat on my way to work.
fucking A, march.
