Spring is here!
(Just don't look at the weather forecast.)

here in the north of Italy they tend to apply quite decently to the perceived weather.

The degrees that impact me most directly are the ones on the thermometer, not the ones on the earth's tilt.

Since Spring is a human invention anyway trying to catalogue what we see in the world and split it evenly (which never works with the real world) I guess it doesn’t matter 😂
