  it has finally warmed up a bit in minnesota. the annuals that we bought have really started to bloom and there is a good chance that i might actually go swimming on the fourth. today is muggy even. i was just on a break and i noticed that the arm that hangs out the window when i drive is getting tan. i am going to have to have jesse take me for one of our long car rides so i can give my other arm a chance to match. i couldn't be more excited at the idea of summer--i think it has finally arrived!
