sunny day, chasin' the clouds away

You know you live in western Washington when the sun comes out, and, regardless of the 47 degree weather, you think it is a prime time to put on a tank top and a short skirt. Then, parading around in such attire, you end up turning blue and feeling not quite so warm as you wish you were in the first place. I guess all Washingtonians are delusional like that.

So I decided to be a typical Washingtonian. I got back to the dorm after church, talked with some of the girls, and one of them was wearing shorts--indoors, of course--and was all excited about the weather and such. Her excitement rubbed off, so I decided to follow her lead. I shaved my legs--it'd been awhile and I was starting to look very Bohemian--all the way, not just to above my knees, and then I slathered on some lotion. I feel quite nice about them now. I don't know what it is about shaved legs, but they certainly make me feel a little more put together. Plus, this way I'll pick up less static electricity. ;)

Anyway, I'm not so delusional that I want to go outside in my short skirt and tank top, but I'm enjoying the sun from inside my room. Maybe later, if I get homework done within a reasonable amount of time, I'll take a walk. I'm planning on going to church with some friends tonight, so I don't have tons of time, but we'll see what happens. In the meantime, I have a 250 word memoir piece to write, a quiz to study for, reading to do, and job applications to fill out.
