Summer is HERE!!!!

[Tater]

It sure as heck isn't summer in Chicago. Blech. (read betagirl's brevet report if you don't believe me!) I'm cranky because I just pulled the down comforter out AGAIN. I've put it away three times already...but I lie there in bed, huddled with the blanket pulled up over my head, trying to generate warmth otherwise!

Until they "fixed" the boiler in my building, my apt was unbearably hot. Now that it's "spring" in Chicago, it just seems to be off. I know, you all can laugh at me when it's 105 in the shade with 99% humidity, when I, too, have to run before the sun comes up...it just seems like it will never, ever be warm again. Every year, the same...every year, it feels eternal! L.

We still have the flannel sheets on the bed! Mid thirties at night, mid sixties during the day. Perfect riding weather!

I am over my cranky self !

I went for a run this morning. It had rained overnight, so everything was wet and sparkling. Green, fresh, and smelling good. The advantage of needing to walk a block here and there on the run is that I breathe through my nose when I walk (vs. mouth breathing on the run), so I smell all the gorgeous flowers and fresh earth. The weather was cool and sunny, perfect for running and biking.

I even thought, "I have to go back on TE and make up for that cranky post about being cold". I stopped by my sister's this afternoon, and she commented on how cold she was, trying to fall asleep last night. Hunh. Genetic crankiness? Really, the weather is great today. Not even too windy. Wish I had time to get out on the bike. Tomorrow!

girls have had all the rain this year.
