Hopeful March

I was in a terrible slump this past week brought on by three things:

• Weather: daily winter weather warnings, endless snowstorms, dreary skies, hour-plus commutes
• All Things Olympics: the bitter pain and triumphant beauty of pride and competition... well, ok. I lie. I do love this about the Olympics, so really, it's just those peskily poignant commercials: P&G (my favorite one below), Chevy, Visa... and each one of these gets me every time.

• Personal Life Miscellany

But now it is March and these are the things enticing me out from my cave of self-pity:

• peanut butter and mashed bananas in my oatmeal
• possible tiramisu construction plans for a dear friend's birthday
• plans for spring/summer 2010 travels
• P for further alliterative phun.

Welcome to March, friends!
