splash

so, on the building message board they have posted that the pool is open. and i can tell it is. because i can see it from my balcony. and it's been kinda, sorta warm on and off for the past couple weeks. and apparently, they've installed a new grill/firepace poolside. and so it seems like perhaps it ought to feel like "it's time." but it just does not seem like swimming weather yet.

i can't figure it out. am i so conditioned by years and years of august to june school imprisonment, that i can't accept that it's summer until some last bell rings?

i don't know. but it is just SO nice not to be a frantic, frazzled mess- rushing to get a thousand things done before mid june. it really is like i'm experiencing a whole new season that i'd forgotten about.

it's just grand really. and apparently, the pool is now open and just waiting for me. yay!
