I love college, I love springtime

On this beautiful day, and in preparation for the 80-degree weekend, I will simply do a short post of things that nice springtime weather reminds me of:

1. Rollerblading trips to Frosty Boy in Napoleon.
2. Going boating out on the beautiful, pristine Maumee River.
3. Most of all, college.

As the song says, I love college. For those of you who knew me way back when, this might not seem like an accurate statement. But after I got through those first two quarters at OU (and, Patrick will say, started hanging out with him...not true), I began to take in everything that is Athens in spring.

You see, Athens, Ohio, in the spring is the most magical place on Earth. We used to say, as we would lay out behind Jefferson Hall freshman year, that Springtime in Athens is when ponies flowed like wine. Why? I don't know. But it made sense at the time. Anything could happen. It was magical.

You'll see it's magic in the video below (just turn down the music. It is not magical.).




Go out and enjoy your magical day. I hope I didn't make anyone too sad, either because you went to OU and miss it or because you didn't go to OU and are depressed now.

As for me, it's time to pretend I'm still in college and watch "Price is Right," then lay around all day. I love college.
