February 2nd, better known as “Groundhog Day”. The day everyone waits to see if a groundhog comes out of his hole and stays out of his hole, signaling an early spring. Or if he gets spooked by his own shadow and runs back into his hole, dooming everyone with six more weeks of winter. Punxsutawny Phil has already made his appearance today, and he did not disappoint.

To anyone who is like me who enjoys warm weather, going golfing, attending a baseball game, or something even as simple as having an adult beverage OUTSIDE FOR ONCE, this is good news. It’s amazing how a cold, unforgiving winter can literally have you cheering for a damn rodent. Cheers to an early spring everyone!
