What she said.

lorin, dear...I hear the frustration behind this post. Is it just about not getting a response in this thread...or about other responses you are owed? Patience...

Yay!!! There is life in this site yet!!! (other than the strategic planning for world war Z that goes on in the Tank :wink: )


It's spring!!!! My crocus (crocus's???) are peeking out, buds on the trees and most of all, warm sun.

(Snow expected on Tuesday :crazy: )

The first day of spring is my daughters birthday, so doubly special. But kind of bittersweet this year. She just turned 22, and will graduate in May. The nest will then be empty. Transition time in the Grayhare household.

I knew you couldn't leave that one alone. It was bait.

As was probably the apostrophe in your plural. You can get me to play the Latin Plural Suffix game readily enough (especially on the Watch where it will make Vraith fume and ussusimiel cheer), but I prefer not to go all Grammar Cop on you. Yes, I noticed...but thought it would be bad form to be so unkind as to pick at it. :hug:

Firefox's spell-check doesn't think that croci is a real word.

Love spring!
I look for those crocuses too.
And apparently ussusmiel has a yearly quest for them.
(unless it was just for a scene in a poem of his)

I love how you, lorin, like me, eagerly look forward to leaves on the trees.
(I remember that one story from when you were young.)

Aww! I'd imagine that's hard... :(

It's crocuses, like Linna said. (/editor)

Saturday was lovely; yesterday was acceptable; today, we're back in the freezer; tomorrow, snow, maybe. Then 60s again by the weekend, or so they claim. I have a bad feeling we're gonna completely skip spring here in DC this year and proceed directly to summer. 8O :crazy: :faint:

Anyhow, happy spring to all Northern Hemisphere Watchers!

Pooh pooh to you northern hemispherians (new word :D ) - Autumn is upon us in the Southern Hemisphere (although I suspect it is still a bit warmer at the moment than some parts...)
