O Frabjous Day!

It's better than that; sunset started getting later again about two weeks ago. Sunrise has continued to be later, and will continue to do so until two weeks from now, but who cares when the sun comes up?
The thing that's special about today is that the amount by which sunset becomes later has finally exceeded the amount by which sunrise is becoming later, so the day has stopped becoming shorter and started becoming longer. But the real effect, for people who are unconscious at sunrise, started December 7th.

Vampires around America are cursing the shorter nights that are coming.

Right (unless you're a farmer). Otherwise very somber Pearl Harbor Day is a time to celebrate for this winter-loathing Bostonian. Still, we've only gained, like, two minutes or something, and later sunsets don't become noticeable until mid January or so. But every little bit helps. Earlier sunrises kick in shortly after New Year. But the big kahuna for me arrives in about a month's time. By the 23rd or so of January, average temperatures once again begin to rise. Yaaaayyy!
