I am more than over joyed that the weather is warming up and the light is sticking around longer. It LITTERALLY makes me a happier person. I think I need to find a 3 season locale to call home - no more of this winter/gray/dreary/freezing bullshiz! I don't even ski anymore so what's the point (except for the awesome snowshoes I got for christmas but only used once because there was no snow)? I am more motivated to work out, can't wait for the garden to fill in w/veggies and am just a generally more productive member of the world. It's great. Lastnight we all went to see The Hunger Games and I didn't even need a coat AND i was in sandals. AMEN to that!

In other AMAZING news:
So, have you seen all the bright colored skinny jeans EVERYWHERE? What am I talking about? Of course you have - unless you walk around with your eyes shut or youve been in a coma. I've been H.U.N.T.I.N.G and scouring the valley for a pair of these trendy pants for weeks. I've tried everystore I could think of, Banana - too expensive, Gap - no selection, Old Navy - I have a bubble but so ON jeans don't fit, J.Crew - $130, Express - $79, Loft/Ann Taylor - store closed to move to City Creek, Forever 21 - Nada... you get my drift. So yesterday, after a sweaty hour at the gym (gotta get my fit on for HAWAII!!!), I ran to Fred Meyer (It will always be Fred Meyer in my mind, not Smiths Marketplace) to buy the ingredients for taco soup and this little voice said, "just go check, you never know", so I did. DING DING DING DING!!!! I FINALLY found some bright jeans, they fit like a charm and are way comfy. I am stoked!! Bright jade green and deep fuscia/plum. and the best part is that they were only $25/a pop. TAKE that J.Crew!
