First Day of Skirt!

I'll be honest; the only reason I'm writing a blog today is because I really, really wanted to name it "first day of skirt," but now I have a fabulous idea! From now on, each year, I will celebrate "First Day of Skirt."  First skirt-wearing days of the year have traditionally been very good days for me so I feel like this is a holiday I can get on board with. It will have to move around obviously...it's not always going to be this warm on Feburary 16th, and I'm not always going to live in Southeast Georgia. But I will celebrate it whenever it happens, wherever it happens. Traditions will include: buying myself something nice, shaving my legs, feeling pretty, and spinning around in circles a couple times at some point. It will be my own true marker of Spring's arrival. So basically, the rest of my life just got about twenty times the awesome points. Also, since we're on the subject, someone should buy me this.

Moving on. I have way too much to do for this week, Homecoming or no homecoming. Britta just posted the same thing on her blog which gives me a sense of solidarity. I'm currently trying to wean myself of so much sleep.  I simply cannot sleep seven hours on weekdays and ten hours on weekends and still get stuff done. It's just not going to happen. So five hours and two cups of coffee sounds like a good compromise. 5+2=7... that's how this works right? Maybe if I didn't spend so much time being silly on the internet I'd have time to sleep? No, that's ridiculous.
