Spring Has Sprung...

.... at least for today! It's about 10:30 at night and I just walked home .... it was almost 70 degrees today (still 65 degrees right now!) and THAT definitely contributed to the spring (pun intended) in MY step.

Now, all you SoCal buddies are shrugging at 65 degrees because it's no big deal... but let me put it in perspective: it was 12 degrees here last week -- TWELVE degrees. Five degrees with the wind chill. So it's no wonder that half of New York was still cruising around tonight, spilling out of restaurants and bars onto make-shift sidewalk patios. There was definitely a different energy tonight -- a happy sort of buzz as we stuffed our scarves into our bags and pockets, left our jackets unbuttoned and eschewed the yellow taxi for a brisk walk home.

And yes, it is supposed to be in the 30's again this weekend. :-(
