CANADA—Today is the first official day of spring.  So whether you’re sitting on a sunny patio or digging out of three feet of snow, it’s time to welcome the change of season.  Here are the Top 10 signs that spring has sprung:

  1. You see your neighbour’s for the first time in five months.
  2. You throw your snow shovel into the darkest corner of your garage, shed, basement, etc. where it will be impossible to find next winter.
  3. Organized soccer replaces the creepy dudes at the park.
  4. Your pale, flabby body makes you wish for another two months of winter clothing.
  5. You’re able to walk down the sidewalk with full and confident strides.
  6. You’re no longer on the fence about eating ice cream.
  7. You finally discover what’s under that lump in the snow.
  8. Your cat/dog/chinchilla sheds enough fur to make a twin.
  9. The window is open for longer than the time it takes to smoke a cigarette.
  10. Horny.  So horny.

I grew up in the USA, but don't hold that against me because I'm also Canadian. Just think of me as the mole.
