Happy first day of March-- wait! Today is really a rare extra day of February!

Leap Day comes once every 4 years. I like to see them as a reminder that calendars are not themselves time, just a human effort to measure time, which unavoidably gets awkward. I also like to use Leap Day as a special day to review the last 4 years. Then I make plans & predictions for the next 4.

If I have time (even with today being itself extra time), I'll make some additions to this thread about how I like to observe Leap Day.

@frameacloud I took your advice last leap day and wrote a letter to myself at futureme. It arrived in my inbox today; how wild. Such a good exercise.

@eredien @frameacloud Every damn time I see that website's name, my brain wants to pronounce it as "futur-eem." :D
