First and most importantly, happy birthday, [personal profile] write_out! Two photos to brighten your day:

Trafalgar Square on bright spring day

And a springtime set of questions courtesy of [community profile] thefridayfive

1. What is your least favorite part of Spring?
Precipitation. Last week I got caught in a downpour with graupel sans umbrella (because I'm optimistic and foolish like that). What's that? You hadn't heard of graupel? Me, neither. Wasn't aware such a thing existed until it was dumped out of the sky on my head. *sigh*

2. What is your most favorite part of Spring?
Longer days! It's such a relief to have a bit more sun in the evenings.

3. What is the latest good book you've read?
Hm. I'm just starting this: Capital City: Gentrification and the Real Estate State. Hopes are high. I'll let you know how it goes.

4. What are your plans for this weekend?
The second half of the grading I was complaining about last week.

5. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck would chuck wood?
Only qualitative analysis 'round these parts, thank you!

What's a good book you've read recently, flist?

I have learned a new thing from this post (graupel)!

I totally agree re: longer days. It's so nice not to drive home from work in the dark.

I haven't written up this book yet, but one of the better books I've read recently was Less by Andrew Sean Greer. Just delightful.
