Up here in the north, it is, indeed, the day of the Vernal Equinox.
On this day the sun is directly over the Equator, which means that every place on earth has exactly equal amounts of sunlight and darkness: 12 hours.
But up here the weather will slowly get warmer while south of the Equator, it will get cooler.
Allegedly.
And there's this:
Some early birds among us are already perusing seed catalogs or visiting plant nurseries to rush the season.
Others just take the changing seasons in stride and with total boredom.
If you're like Ella Fitzgerald, singing . .
Spring is here
Why doesn't my heart go dancing?
Spring is here
Why isn't the waltz entrancing?
. . then you may understand the ennui of that feline above, our Visiting Cat, Matty, catnip sedated and ready for his nap.
