Good things about April

For me:

The students have buggered off for Easter and the tourist season hasn't started yet, so the streets of Durham are nice and quiet!

When the students do get back it will be warm enough for the female ones to be wearing short skirts - yay!

The swallows will be back soon (no sign of any here at the moment though)

I'll no longer freeze at Gateshead Thunder matches - though no doubt we will keep losing no matter what the weather

The sight screens are out and the pitch marked out at the univ sports ground - the cricket season is here!

*sigh* Stoner...

I like April because on the 24th, I will have been officially involved in a relationship for one year. Which will beat my previous longest relationship by... *does the math* ... one year.

There's nothing wrong with being a stoner!

Good things about April - Celebrating Ostara.

I wonder if the stoners know they're celebrating BOTH Hitler's birthday and the anniversary of the Columbine school shooting. ::shrug::

I love April. It's my birthday month, the weather is absolutely fantastic, I'm going to prom with one of my best friends (we're going to go bowling before the dance), it means graduation is that much closer, and I adore driving with the windows down.

That sounds lovely Starr.

And I may be a stoner - soon to be ex maybe. But I've never bothered to celebrate 4/20. I'm too busy with Ostara.
