In the past, the first day of spring coincided with my birthday, March 21. From 1981 to 2102, the first day of spring will be on or before March 20. In fact, March 19 will be the first day of spring in 2008, 2012, and 2016. It's a strange phenomemon, related to the earth's elliptical orbit, precession, the force of gravity exerted from other planets, etc. No longer can I say that my birthday falls on the first day of spring. Not in California anyway. I can however, say that my birthday coincides with the first full day of spring. That'll work for me.

happy bday bobby!
Thanks for the comment Bobby. I miss ya man, and I love reading your entries, because even though I now live in the Philippines, there is still little I know. Your entries is almost like being in Davis again. Take care and Happy Belated Birthday. It was refreshing to see how someone can understand how important my lola and lolo were to me.
