Spring Sprung

After watching Saturday night's typhoon blow over downtown while Dallas mixed Pina Coladas, I awoke Sunday morning to some truly spectacular weather. Skies were bluer than SJP's shoes, the temperature approached 80, and noninflatable lovelies sunned themselves by the pool for the first time this year.
I took a bike ride through scenic Memorial Park, where I witnessed more of Spring's blossoming beauties. After winding around the bayou to look for gators and dead bodies, I capped my ride off with a cherry ice smoothie. Even after sunset, it was too nice to eat inside, so I threw some steaks on the grill and ate poolside.
A number of coworkers are sunburned, many just from enjoying brunch on the patio. But the standard in this regard has been set by our resident reality tv hater who spent the day kayaking in the bay. I've never seen a sunburned Greek before.
Despair not, friends in the North. Spring is here!

My only complaint about yesterday was that the Displaced Dogs got kicked off the Empire Cafe patio because someone ratted out a few other dogs to the health department a few weeks ago, and they've since instituted a no-dog policy. But no fear, we just moved down the street a bit to a more friendly patio and had a wonderful day basking in the sun.
I love Spring.
