back, back, forth, forth

Spring is always on the verge, it teases like highschool make-outs in basements....It is the back and forth last embrace of winter that – while still in March – leaves you feeling anxious, desperate and makes the skin crawl.

I am so ready for sunshine....so ready for the feeling that spring and the possibility of summer, that I am aching with anticipation. And it’s not just the warmth, the suntan or the litany of spring shows to look forward to…it’s that everyone is happier in the spring.

We start to shed the bitter winter angst. The work week blends into the weekend and we wake up. I’m so tired of sleepy, cold, awful winter.

I want the return of Tuesday drinks, of nightly dinner parties, of stolen cigarettes on patios without the chill, of kissing outside and not freezing together and of black tights for style, not for necessity ; )
