Hot damn, this weather is fine.
Work is busy. Life is crazy busy. Best I could do on this beautiful day was snap a photo or two in midtown while waiting for my lunch-partner-in-crime. This weather is putting everyone in a better mood; let's hope it means we'll avoid another summer Rain Watch.

The weather will save your 401K.
On the few occasions that I was lucky enough to leave work at a decent time over the course of the past week (read: before 7pm), one of my favorite parts of spring was starting to show face - it was getting lighter out! No longer was my walk home an extension of the sunless (but not lifeless) subway underground. I purposely popped up on the subway earlier than necessary for this shot. 
God bless the unlimited use metro card.
Daylight Savings couldn’t have come at a better time. Until this past weekend, the weather matched the mood at work . Heck, the snowstorm of the season, causing schools across the area to preemptively close, still fell (no pun intended) six inches short of expectations. Nothing was going right. Geese were taking down planes! Then suddenly, Mother Nature (or is it the gang of meteorologists over there in Greenwich, England?) decided it was time to single handedly save the city. More time for sun coupled with an unusually warm weekend forced hibernating city dwellers to do something they haven’t done in months – leave the apartment and spend some dough.
The city’s lungs were full of flip flop flirting temp’s and tightly guarded cash. People were OUT and ABOUT this weekend (as was I doing my part at brunch). Embrace the weather, fight the recession. We can all do our part. Okay maybe not with flip flops, but definitely with newly purchased light flannel.
