Spring is in the air

I hereby declare today the first day of Spring. I don't have much truck with calendars in general, but even less so when it comes to the seasons. Summer is when it's hot. Autumn is when it's orange and ochre and gold, Winter is when it's dark, and Spring is when it's not dark anymore. And it's not dark anymore - I got up this morning in daylight and today I left work at 5:thirty, also in daylight (even if it was only the last vestiges). Ergo, it's Spring. And I'm happy (and not just because I got to use the word "ergo", which always brings a smile to my face).

Partly I'm particularly happy because I've been spending a lot of time recently trying to answer a questionnaire that rAdam (another of the blogless, so no link to him either), sent me about seven or eight months ago. Contrary to what he may have thought, I haven't forgotten about it, I simply keep starting on it, getting stuck on one particular question and putting it down again. I've done this a lot (a lot), but I believe I've answered the question that's been vexing me so, so I'm going to finish off the rest of it. I'll probably post it up here once I'm done. As I've mentioned before I have a tendancy to let things weigh upon me when there's often no need, and it feels good to clear something else off my list (I've even notified the bank of where I live at last).

If I keep this up I may even end up being organised...
