So yesterday I saw something startling: there's all sorts of green leafiness covering trees and shrubs. Also: a variety of shit is blooming. Whoa. I mean, this is totally unprecedented, right?
I guess I haven't had the time to notice this...since the past two weeks have been a haze of nyquil, phlegm, freud, nietzsche, cytoskeletons, constructive empiricism, mucus, scientific realism, benzene, chi-square analyses... oy.
Also, the weather is increasingly bearable.
And then this morning, I saw a miracle.
Well, ok. It wasn't really a miracle. (The consequences of abnormally elevated testosterone levels rarely, if ever, are.)
But it was a very agitated male robin wildly pecking, flapping, and (for a few moments) riding on the back of an extremely bewildered and panic-stricken squirrel who kept craning his little neck around to try and figure out what the hell was happening to him. It was, in a word: awesome.
So thanks, nature. You made my day.
