Spring?

Vernal Equinox, or the first day of Spring was a few days ago on 3/20. The past 2 weeks have felt like it too. We had temperatures in the 50's and it was raining every once in a while with most days being long, bright and sunny. So I thought we were out of Winter, until I saw the forecast for today last night... snow? While it was a small flurry, it was actually pouring on hard at one point in the afternoon. Fortunately, it wasn't cold enough for accumulation. It still made a nice slushy mess in some parts though. We've had a white Easter before, so I guess that's the real cutoff point to tell us we're in the clear. Just an hour ago, we had thunder sleet too!

The strange thing about the snow and dark morning was that I actually liked it. I'm pretty sure I don't feel like this every year, but I just got so used to things being dark that I feel weird in the light. I want my morning commute to be pitch black. The warm weather and Spring scent feels weird. I'm not sure why I'm having a hard time adjusting this year.
