Done, done, DONE!!!

I have been studying for my finals for over a week now. I have been studying almost to the exclusion of other activities for the past three days.

Dare I whisper it in hushed tones with the curtain drawn? I think not. I hesitate to even write it. I probably shouldn't even think it. But can it be? Is is possible that the start of spring is upon us? I haven't felt weather this warm since Florida. It was quite nice, even the rain. I am so ready for winter to end.

But I'm sure even my most devoted fans will be amazed at the impact this job is having on me ( Read more... )
