Cat Scratch Spring Fever

You make me feel so young, you make me feel like spring sprung. Sinatra anyone? No? I don't necessarily feel so young, but spring is definitely about to be sprung. I know we just had the Alabama blizzard of Oh-9, but it's supposed to be seventy-something this weekend. Crazy, right? Maybe we'll have another cold spell, maybe we won't. Nonetheless, spring is imminent. It is upon us. It is here, I think. (read next sentence quickly for full effect) Top ten list of what Special K loves about spring, GO!

1. The musty smell my car air conditioner spits out after months of being dormant. Love it, don't ask me why.

2. The Dave Matthews Band. Yeah, I know...they were on the summer and fall lists as well. Some music is just appropriate year round.

3. March Madness. Hopefully the Terps can win their last couple of games and get to the big dance.

4. Blooming dogwoods.

5. The days start to get a little longer.

6. Easter.

7. Spring break. I'm back in school...it means something again.

8. Major league baseball begins. Go Cubs go.

9. The ability to smoke a fine cigar outside without your fingers going numb.

10. T-shirts.

What do you guys think? What do you love about spring? Hell, what do you hate? Leave some love.

"Spring is nature's way of saying, 'Let's party!'"
-Robin Williams




Capricious Observations Part Dos:

1. "Osbourne Cox?" Carmen and I can't watch anything with John Malkovich without thinking about this repeated line from Burn After Reading. HI-larious.
2. Stimulus bill...or new and not improved New Deal?
3. I'm convinced all of the LOST writers are Calvinists.
4. Do your chain hang low? Buy gold and buy it now...it will always be worth something.
