An open window. Daffodils in the deli again. The heavy, tired old winter coat left on a hook.


Remember not having to put on socks? Remember air-conditioning?


It’s spring, and spring is the Friday of seasons.

Hear the heavy footsteps of winter plodding over to the other side of the hemisphere (too bad for them).

But let’s not get too excited. ’Tis the season of unavoidable clothing errors. First too hot. Then, too cold. An excess of layers when you don’t need them and a cold wilderness of bare skin when you do.

Hurry along then, summer, so we can finally complain about the heat.
