Crushed Daisies & Sweat: A Thread for Warmer Weather

[davy]

Too early, you say?

Nonsense!

Dudes are playing baseball all over the place and this guy just bought some kickass flip-flops.

In four months or so, no doubt I will be hating my life and the 3 showers a day I'll be forced to take, but right now, I'm dreaming of my porch, my t-shirts, my swimming trunks, my happier girlfriend...

March is an inconsistent bitch, but it'll be over soon enough.

[Maaik]

OH BOY SPRING AND SUMMER.  When I will be forced to find the unhappy median between office clothes and clothes that are tolerable to wear in 700 degree heat.

Today I busted out a FALL jacket that I wore twice last fall before the temperature obliged me to haul out the winter coat.  I was super-excited about this, because I expect to wear it once more this SPRING before the warm weather forces me to go without an overgarment.  I'm not joking here; any winter coat I wear gets beat to shit in one year, but I have a full rack of light jackets that I've bought over the years that have barely been touched.

47°/18°? That's not doing anybody any favors.

[davy]

I'd say you should move to Georgia, but you shouldn't, not really.

[The_Tourist]

fucking delightful.

Oh goddammit, it's still cold here. I need to play baseball soon or I'm going to explode.

A couple weeks ago we had a really nice 70 degree day. My friend Kelly took 2 gloves and a ball and just walked around downtown asking people if they'd play catch with him.

[davy]

I would've said yes.

I always say yes to catch.

[Aglaya]

I would've said yes, which would've been followed by the worst game of catch ever.  I played softball when I was younger, but I was only good because I was bigger than everyone.  I was a little girl power hitter when I could manage to hit the ball, and because my legs were so much longer, I was usually one of the fastest runners.

In weather news, it's been lovely here too!  A bit on the rainy side, but we've had the windows open, and my favorite thing in the world is having the windows open.  I get really psyched about it, and once they're open, I don't want to close them for anything.  Paired with the rain, this led to a pretty nasty puddle.

[davy]

we've had the windows open, and my favorite thing in the world is having the windows open.

YES.

And my porch door can be like a gigantic bonus window, since the porch is screened in. And man, that sends a nice breeze through my bedroom.

Wonderful.

[davy]

That said, Shit, it is cold and nasty wet in Athens today.

[Nick Ink]

Zero/Minus 1 or 2 overnight here again - frosty mornings and a very cold wind.

[Aglaya]

It got a bit chilly here today too.  Needed to pull my little jacket out.
