It’s spring, bitches! Just in time for summer. Some elements of the past month:

• finished with my first semester in school, definitely the right decision to go back to school – it was moderately stressful, particularly from mid-March to last week, but I really enjoyed every minute and loved the challenge (shut UP, Simon, it was NOT that easy). Plus I learned a bunch of stuff, ask me about reference! and the Type-A in me is excited that I finished it with a 4.0, pretty sure that’ll be the only semester I can say that. I’ve never in my academic career done that well so I’m gonna brag a little, mmkay?
• I am currently obsessed with: getting a new (old) bike, the color yellow, long scarves, gold shoes, trader joe’s lasagne, delicious library 2, the new yorker, nars blush, and good margaritas.
• finally spent the day at May‘s for our much-missed writing/dogs/lunch date, in anticipation of this Friday’s rooftop Salon Esse, last of the season. Writing groups are awesome, especially when combined with drinking. I know that fire was a bitch and all, but this apartment (now neighbors with Robin!) is incredible, perfect for our writing dates, which is a pity since
• I’ve gone and ruined my lazy summer by getting an internship here, so from mid-June to mid-August I’ll be working five days a week between that and my regular part-time job. SUMMER LAZY FAIL!
• But I’m excited, people, oh so excited, to be working in a gorgeous old law library on awesome projects with a director who’s really keen to show me the ropes and teach me new stuff about librarying in a library. Oh yes. I just used it as a verb.
• Have I mentioned we’re going to San Francisco to stay with the incredible Pickard-Johnsons and visit the Alameda Flea and Napa and the seals and the cable cars and AL-CA-TRAAAAAZ (*note: may not actually go to Alcatraz, may just make Eddie Izzard jokes constantly) and maybe drag these gorgeous people and their baby out to coffee?
• No? I didn’t mention it?
• Well then now is the time to start leaving me dozens of comments about your favorite places to eat/shop/walk/drink/boogie in San Francisco. I am sure in five short days in early June we will manage all of them. We’ll just forego sleep.
• WHAT? I know it’s June. I know it’ll be cold and raining. The tickets were like no dollars. Shut up.

Okay, I’ve officially updated my blog on the goings-on of my life for the past month. I’ve left out the part where I ran for student government and lost (what! I know.), the part where we paid a bunch of money to a nice lawyer man for a stupid immigration thing for no good reason (that story is hilarious, let me tell it to you over three bottles of wine), the part where my bestie is moving to London and I’m both jubilant and crushed about it, the part where the dog threw up in the car a bunch, and the part where our apartment is still an unholy mess because I’ve been in grad school and Stuart has been slaving at work.

Don’t ever say I don’t give you the good stuff at pH, in bullet points, and with a minimal amount of excessive capitalization.
