I'm starting come out of my hibernation mode. Who else?
I get like this every winter. I stay my room all night, usually at the computer screen, and don't go out.

Today it been different. The sun's sort of out. It's warm. Spring seems to be in the air.

I'm hankering to get out an take a long drive somewhere, maybe do some painting or photography.

I hate to speak too soon, me being in New England and all, the weather this time of year is unpredictable.

For the moment however I'm feeling fine...

Hi y'all. :hi:

2. I actually don't sleep much...
I'm kind of an insomniac/ early riser. Tho I do sometimes feel I need a nice long nap in the middle of the day. Sucks when it happens while I'm at work.

3. I love that middle of the day nap
curled up with a book. Usually in the cold months. In the summer way to busy.

4. I know, if this were summer...
I'd probably be out on a road trip, or at least cleaning my room.

Today's kind of half busy, half lazy for me.

7. I know the feeling, last night it was snowing
here in Massachusetts. I thought today we'd be covered in it. But instead it's been about fifty degrees and partly sunny.

Things are beginning to thaw, tho I'm still wary.

10. I will, this time of year I sometimes feel like a Vampire
I usually have to get up at 5 A.M. for work, and don't get out until 5 P.M. and it's dark both times of day.

Last week I got to drive home from work with my sunglasses on for the first time. That was a pretty good sign. B-)

11. Today's a good day for it in Connecticut...
50 degrees when I drove the little guy to school, so we put the convertible's roof down (though we did have the seat heaters on).

14. I'm not too far away from you guys in CT
So I know how you feel...It's such a beautiful morning, I go outside and all I hear is drip, drip, drip coming from the roofs of the neighbor's house.

It's such a good feeling.
