i was going to give you homework, our stats professor said, but because it's such a nice day out today, i'm not. and well, it was, the first real day of spring, as in no jackets, golden retrievers frisking in the park, shirtless guys playing volleyball on the quad. the return of good weather has more significance for me this year. for the first time in a while, i've been in a temperate zone all winter, and it was a moderately rough one by philadelphian standards (i think) -- at least three snowfalls i recall that gave folks serious pause when stepping out of the house. but i think we're truly done with that, and everyone was out, even daniel who busted his foot a couple of weeks ago, and there were no excel worksheets, just milk chug and spaghetti tops and sunshine streaming down.
