I mean, in an actual non-sarcastic sense, the first day of winter is good in that it means we have reached winter solstice and the shortest day of the year. Thereafter, the days start getting longer again as we begin the steady march toward March and the return of Daylight Saving Time, the One True Time.
Here’s hoping that all the respective west coast governments reach agreement on the above so that come November we don’t “fall back” into the pit of despair known as darkness by 4:15 p.m. I can live with mornings being darker in exchange for having more daylight during a time in which I can actually make use of it for myself.
Here’s to 2021 being brighter–at least in the afternoons.
