Not enough hours in a day...

I have since forgotten what my topic was to be, so now I have a new one. Being twitterpated.

Huh? You know, the word in Disney's Bambi that Friend Owl defines. Everyone becomes twitterpated in the spring...meaning mating season for animals and everyone falls in love.

Do you feel "twitterpated" in the spring time if you are single? Scientists suggest female bodies are programmed to respond more in the spring. Their bodies produce children, so they (we) can relate more to the growth cycles in the sping versus the fall season.

Does feeling twitterpated happen even if you are with someone? Scientists again argue that yes, you are with someone and the urge to mate in the spring is stronger. It may not be an intense physical feeling, but more of a subconcious thing for women of childbearing age.

I found I am too...maybe it's a female thing. Emerging out of a long winter and feeling alive with the growth of everything around?

Maybe my brain is just maxed and I need sleep!

If Valentine's Day were to be moved later into spring, would it make a difference? What would like population be like! Imagine the extra twitterpated people on Valentine's Day and...well, you know.

I'll stop my ramblings now. Let me know if you are more twitterpated in the spring. Or are you a different season twitterpater-er?
