Spring is in the air, and along with dusting off the pollen currently coating my car, I must dust off the weight of an oppressive, yet mild winter. Why is it that we get this "spring fever"? Is it the suggestive nature of the many blossoms opening their petals to catch every ray of sunlight? Is it the longer evenings making for lingerings over a glass of wine to watch the sun set? Or is it just that we've stayed indoors so long that now that we are out and about, we look up from under our rain hoods to realize that there are a ton of GORGEOUS human beings.
Okay, so amid those gorgeous human beings, how do we signal our availability? I don't want to run around like a baboon showing my pink bum to all males in search of a mate. No, it's not that desperate... at all. I would just like to be able to give off a whiff of my singleness and openness for companionship in the same subtle way that the cherry blossoms are letting the bumble bees know it's time to come out and play.
Off for a walk in the sunshine to contemplate the subtleties of nature and attraction; a girl, her chihuahua, and a smile :)
