It feels odd actually writing out the date February 29, I never get used to this. I was curious why every four years we get this extra day and found that it’s in order to keep our calendar year synchronized with the astronomical or seasonal year. Basically it’s because the earth doesn’t orbit around the sun fast enough, and that a regular non leap year is called a common year. I remember thinking as a teen I was glad that my birthday didn’t fall on leap year, therefore having to change the day to commemorate it to either Feb 28 or March 1, and only getting to celebrate it on the actual birth date every four years. That’s not fair; well then again it could be pretty cool having a really special birthday like that. Now years later, the older I get, I think there could be some advantages to not having a birthday but every four years. If that were the case I would only be 12 this year instead of turning 48. Happy Birthday to all of the Leapers born on this day. ![]() PS: Wahoo, I made my first Blue Month. |
