Those darn cherry blossoms

Dear Bloggy,

The cherry blossoms are blooming. I've transferred to my new job. Things are almost serene.

It always seem that life changes dramatically for me around cherry blossom time.

I don't know if I am going to venture to the Tidal Basin this year. Well, its because of the hordes. The Tidal Blossom tourists are just like cicadas, except ruder! They fly around, bump into you, and then attack the trees. You often see them clumped around the cherry trees, hanging on to branches...often wrenching off delicate flowers to stuff up their noses. I don't know if I can stand to see the horticulture abuse. Egad people, the cherry trees are a national treasure not the national climb-a-tree contest!

I am being curmudgeonly because I admit, I just want the cherry blossoms to myself!

Sincerely,

A.
