Be Sure to Wear Carolina Blue Tomorrow

Song of the Day: Strange Currencies by REM

Although the official first day of spring has yet to arrive, it certainly feels like it has. Today reached a high of 73, and the sun did finally make it out this afternoon. As we discussed last night in Bible study, it's hard to believe that March is in full swing and February is gone (and has been gone for a while now). Time flies when you're having fun, they say.

Wake's Byrum Welcome Center

 And fun we are having! Fitz had a good day, nothing really out of the ordinary. He was sweet enough to go out to get Chipotle for dinner this evening, sparing us both from cooking late and dirty dishes. Katherine also had a nice day. She attended the Winston-Salem Arts Council Kickoff Meeting at the Byrum Center on Wake Forest's campus. It's a beautiful building with some particularly cute, small flowers planted right outside. At the meeting, Katherine heard a brief lecture on the Texas millionaires who insisted that while President Kennedy stayed in Fort Worth the night before his assassination, his hotel room be filled with famous artwork. She also heard a wonderful performance of a few Bach pieces on the piano by a music professor at Wake and another brief lecture on an exhibition called Domestic Bliss currently on display at Reynolda House.

We're both very excited about the ACC Tournament, and we'll be pulling for our beloved Tar Heels tomorrow at noon as they take on the Maryland Terrapins. Go Heels!

Those adorable flowers...violets or mini pansies?
