come back, spring

The consensus among the climbing women who have planted gardens is that everything seems to have stopped sprouting upwards, expcet for flowers like lupin which like the stimulus of cold weather. One woman in particular who has been putting out her first vegetable garden seemed shocked by the lack of development we've been reporting; except for weeds, of course.
Finished Percy's The Moviegoer, which was very good. Am ready to abandon the airship with the Pynchon, Against the Day. I should have known I wouldn't like it overall, since The Wall Street Journal reviewer did.

But the days are getting longer, so shouldn't there be more sunlight and warmth. I hope everything snaps back and starts growing again.

Robin a., at the moment it's in the mid 40's and pouring very cold rain. It started gray today, and continued thus all day. We seem to be stuck in late winter...
