Happy First Day of Spring!
Feb. 2nd, 2006 04:01 amI eschew the ridiculous convention of celebrating the first of spring on the Equinox. Midwinter should be the middle of winter, midsummer should be the middle of summer, and the two special dates in between are clearly the middles of spring and fall. Duh.
Oh, and forget that groundhog nonsense. If he sees his shadow, six more weeks til? If he doesn't, six more weeks of? IT'S THE SAME DAMN THING (coincidentally always landing on the equinox)! There's no "early spring" or "long winter" or any of it! It's the same amount of time!
This has been my yearly rant. Thank you.
