Today was a wintry mix of wintry mixes.

I was supposed to run this race today:

However, the weather had other plans and I planned poorly for those other plans. Who'd of thought DFW would get snow on the first day of spring? What I'm trying to say is, not packing running tights or long sleeve shirts or headbands meant no race for me. Boooooo! But, not packing running tights or long sleeve shirts or headbands also meant 4 more hours of sleep. Hooray! And because I was really looking forward to my post-race brunch, I ran 10K on the treadmill (boring torture) and then ate this at La Madeleine.



OMNOMNOMNOMNOM. Totally yumz french toast.

And just to spite the frigid day in the face, I bought a delightfully sunny sundress (which I will be wearing on Monday so expect pictures then, for sure). Hello, spring- farewell wicked wicked winter!

And despite delicious french toast and new clothing, the best part of the day was that I wrote a song for the first time since October. Writer's block? Maybe. I personally think it's just that I'm now finally getting out of a time of my life where all personal growth was stagnated by being stuck for 5 months in a limbo of sorts. I have plans to record next weekend in the studios at J26. Which also, coincidentally and conveniently enough, happens to be my bedroom. That reminds me, does anyone have a melodica I can borrow?

The second best part of the day was finding out that Starbucks' free pastry day and Cornucopia's monthly free popcorn day are both this Tuesday.
