Wish List


Today was a beautiful day-- one of the first in at least a little while. The perfect day to play outside. Almost.

Things I Wish I Had Today

Frisbee
A Frisbee. The better to play outside, my dear.

Football
A football. See: above.

Sun
More sun. Only, maybe a slightly less terrifying sun than that one. It may have been approaching 70 degrees outside, but it was cloudy and overcast where I am. Today was sorely lacking in vitamin D.

Legs
A tan. Instead of frolicking outdoors today, I went to the gym. In 70 degree weather it's clearly too hot to sweat in workout pants-- it was a Soffe shorts kind of day. Unfortunately, my legs have been in hibernation for months and are ghostly pale. My vehement refusal to pay for things I can get for free means I've never been to a tanning bed (oh, yeah, and the cancer thing), so I'll just have to wait for more days like these for my melanin fix.

Math
Math skills. Here's an equation for you: I'm vaguely studying for the GRE + I barely remember how to carry the two + I haven't taken a math class in almost six years = This sucks.

Scrooge McDuck
A billion dollars. I'm getting off track.

My computer tells me that tomorrow's high is 67 degrees. You've got my list, Universe. Make it happen.
