Today’s Ten on Tuesday topic is Ten Things I Am Looking Forward to Right Now<\/a>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. My upcoming trip to Hungary.<\/li>\n
  2. Our friend’s birthday party tomorrow evening.<\/li>\n
  3. The return of volleyball next week. (A snow day means the venue is closed, so no game today.)<\/li>\n
  4. Vegetables. (The 4-day weekend involved an awful lot of delicious, tasty carbs and now I’m jonesing for some healthy fare.)<\/li>\n
  5. Sock Madness. (Starting March 1)<\/li>\n
  6. The Ninja Book Swap<\/a> I signed up for. (Buying presents for — and receiving them from — random strangers on the internet is surprisingly satisfying.)<\/li>\n
  7. Picking up my books from the library. (The Georgetown Branch was closed 2 1\/2 days for a broken water pipe, 1 day for the holiday, and 1 day for the snow.)<\/li>\n
  8. Spring flowers. (Seeing the snowdrops last week — now buried under five inches of actual snow — was too tantalizing and is exacerbated by Twitter pictures of magnolias blooming in Louisiana.)<\/li>\n
  9. Pi(e) Day. (Rudi may or may not be in town, but I feel like it needs celebrating anyway this year.)<\/li>\n
  10. Rearranging our living room. (Rudi and I talked about it this weekend and are on board with the first major furniture shift in ages.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    How about you? What are you looking forward to right now?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
