BIG SPRING IN THE BIG SMOKE


Well, I saw my first robin the other day. Then I saw a "BIG FAT robin" which was actually a pigeon masquerading AS a robin according to my friend LJ.

So, spring is here and I need glasses.

Here is a list of events going on in the t-dot this month. If you live nearby, good GOD man / woman please enjoy a taste of what my dearest city has to offer!
