Truth: Stupid Groundhog
Every friggin year we have to wait to see if Punxatawney Phil see's his shadow or not, to determine if there will be six more weeks of winter. Well I don't pay attention. Not that what he does means anything. I just don't pay attention to winter.
The thought having a shorter winter sounds great. If it could only really happen that some rodent could determine this, then life would be so much easier. Alas though, my winter runs from November 1 through March 31. My New Year's Day is April 1...when baseball rolls round, my personal Holiday of April Fools, tulips, hockey playoffs, and summer approaching.
Now here's my issue though. Just as the ground hog pops his head up to see his shadow; I check the calendar everyday hoping to get to April.
I hibernate for 5 months. I realize it's my choice to hibernate, but there are many factors that lead to this. It is mostly due to the cold climate. I don't like it, I don't want to deal with it. There's less daylight. There's really nothing to do outside that I enjoy in the cold weather.
Do I get to April faster by looking at the calendar? No of course not. Those that do no learn from history are destined to repeat it. I've learned nothing, because I clearly look at April on the calendar.
Actually this is more like the movie Ground Hog Day. Where everything is repeated over and over.
