and just like that

spring was delayed and delayed and delayed and delayed and then it got shot out of a cannon. so now, we have crocuses, hyacinths, daffodils, trilliums, pussy-willow, forsythia, catkins, spring ephemerals, maple blossoms, ferns, apple blossoms, and soon lilacs all exploding into life at the same time. boom. boom. boom. i thought it might be a fast spring, but this is giving me whiplash. zero to sixty in two weeks. maybe when we hit lilac season, things will settle down a bit. wait. we already hit lilac season. ok, maybe when the jack-in-the-pulpits appear . . . wait. OK maybe when the buttercups bloom.
