This weather. It always makes me laugh, the way we coo and fawn over any weather. My facebook and instagram have been littered with screen shots of weather apps, and I fain gratitude as if I, as if all of us, didn't have a weather app or access to the internet.
But still, the first time it snowed here in Utah this season, that was different. Everyone posted a picture, but I was actually grateful, that there truly is a kid in each of that stops in wonder at the first freshly fallen snow, that forgets that mid-January we will despise the polluted piles on each parking lot median.
And here we are today. The sun is out, the inversion it (mostly) gone, and the horrible road conditions of the past few days are forgotten. 28 degrees feels like 50 (yesterday), and I'm dreaming of summer. The sun is shining. And the sun is not setting all the way before 5:30pm. I forgot how real the winter time blues are. Man. Go soak up some sun today while you can, because I didn't realize how funky I was feeling until a beautiful day came along to change it.
I went to a play last night called Sideshow, at a theater in Provo. One of my coworkers produced and directed it, and I'm on a high from that as well. It is a heavy show, but the cast did a wonderful job and so did the director! The leads were phenomenal singers and it was a much needed artistic experience. It runs two more nights, so yes, I am plugging it. Go see it tonight or tomorrow (and there is a matinee I believe), you won't regret it. And I watched "Craigslist Joe", a documentary where a guy named Joe lives off the goodness of others through craigslist.org for a month. It reminded me that people are weird and awesome and God loves every single crazy one of them!
Then today Lisa gave me a mixed CD. Yeah, we are bringing them back. We have produced several between the three of us (Lisa, E and me) in the last two months, and I love it! Remember this? Check out the comments, Lisa pulls through for the win!
All I'm saying is I'm taking inventory and my daily forecast and the 10-day is looking bright.
