A Serious Case Of Spring Fever
Spring Fever
n. A feeling of restlessness, excitement, or laziness brought on by the coming of spring.
Despite my clearly baseless claims of increased maturity in my previous post written a mere few hours ago, all signs actually point to the probability that I have, in fact, regressed to approximately age 17.
I had a doctor’s appointment today at 11am and I have another appointment tomorrow, with a different doctor, at 1pm. Earlier this morning I was aware of, and even mentioned to my sister on the phone, the fact that today’s appointment was at 11am. At some point between the time I spoke to my sister and 11am, my dumb-ass somehow came to believe that today’s appointment was at 1pm and tomorrow’s was at 11am. Consequently, I was twenty minutes late and had to reschedule for tomorrow.
The weather here is gorgeous today, after the past several days being cold, rainy and/or gloomy. It’s sunny and almost seventy degrees. I left the doctor’s office somewhat embarrassed by my bonehead move but promptly forgot all about it as I rolled the windows down and cranked up my iPod to concert-worthy decible levels.
I proceeded to drive around aimlessly listening to, and of course singing along with, songs such as these:

And of course this:

I absolutely love doing this. I have perfected the infantile practice of believing that if I don’t make eye contact with my fellow drivers then they can’t actually see me rockin’ out like a fool in my car, right next to them, with the windows rolled down and music blasting. Uh huh. I believe it.
Of course, I finally came home, juvenile behavior out of my system, and pursued some sort of activity suitable for an actual adult, right? ‘Fraid not. I responded to this question posed on twitter; ”Sending a care package to a 1st year college student. What is one item you wished you received that year?” with; “a fake I.D. 
”. I then proceeded to re-join an already in progress heated debate on facebook about American Idol.
I’m going to chalk all of these shenanigans up to Spring Fever and hope some level of maturity and sense of responsibility return soon.
Thanks for stopping by!
Peace, love and rock ‘n roll. These will never go out of style.
Spring jumped right in to Summer for us, 100 degree weather already. NOT FAIR!
Haha. I do the rockin’ out thing in my car too. It’s supposed to be in the eighties!! this weekend. I’ll be cranking up the car stereo.
Oh crap. Are those things considered immature? In that case, I must e about twelve. I do those things every.single. day:)
