Seems iTunes finally listened: you can now “complete my album” for a reduced price–so you won’t get (as) shafted if you buy a single then decide you want the whole album. The only catch is it has to be within 6 months. That I can live with. Hopefully it’s a feature they keep around. It may encourage me to buy more!

I’m suprised I’m not more sore (actually, I’m barely sore at all).
I’ve probably just spoken too soon.
This weekend was full of dancing! I’m glad we chose to stay in Friday night; I’d really be pooped! Saturday we went out for a jog (about 2.5 miles) and while we were out our friend called to remind us about a benefit workshop he was doing that afternoon. A quick shower and lunch run later, we were at the studio for a three-hour salsa workshop (the benefit: a local dancer–whom I grew up with, by coincidence–made it to Vegas for So You Think You Can Dance?). Dinner downtown (sloooooow service) and then off to find that the “new” salsa night we were hoping for closed early. Again. Who closes a club–hell, a bar–at 10pm?? WTF? So it was off to the Howling Moon again. Meh. The DJ sucks there. Mostly hyper-merengues and lots of bachatas. Hardly any salsas.
Sunday we headed out to Ann Arbor for two more hours of workshops (taught by other people). I really enjoyed the Cha-Cha Shine class–it felt like I was back at a dance convention trying to cram in as much choreography in as little time as possible. Hopefully I can remember it! After a sushi dinner (I’m starting to like it more) we headed over to the YA Salsa monthly social. Wow! It was crowded (in a good way) and everyone was dancing! All levels of dancers; some were pretty amazing. And, naturally, good music! Mostly salsa, quite a few cha-chas and maybe one or two rhumbas. It was quite a late night!

I heard birds this morning as I left my fiance’s! Birds! Chirping, singing birds!
That must mean spring is nearing. Right? Right?!

I only made it through the first day of summer last night…but spring is pretty darn cool. Yes, I did use the “motherlode” cheat: mostly because I just want to get to exploring as quickly as possible.
Spring: rain and lightening. Coolness. The lightening freaked me out a bit at first, but it’s pretty slick. I didn’t notice any particular discomfort if my sims were outside in it. Couldn’t manage to get either of them to splash in puddles. 
Maxis needs a thermometer. Checking the weather report is nifty, but I’d like something like a thermometer (even it’s something the sims need to purchase).
Gardening or fishing is a big time-suck but very cool. Although my apple trees were getting sickly until I harvested them–on the first day of summer! Umm…apples aren’t good until Fall…
The thing that makes it most irritating is that the apples were ready for harvest before the strawberries OR tomatoes. WTF man!
I haven’t noticed too many new objects; just a few new styles (mostly ones I won’t be using as I’m not a fan of country). I love being able to set different hair for different outfits. Way cool.
I can’t wait to play some more! (And I anticipate the recolors/new meshes to come from the fans are going to be way cool too).

Lightening. With a foot of snow on the ground (well, there was early this morning at any rate; it’s been freezing rain all morning). Lightening (and thunder) during what I still consider Winter is just…odd.
Cool. But very disconcerting.
Oh and lightening in the winter has a purplish tinge to it. Very pretty.
