longer days !

I felt good today when I left work. Not because I was leaving work but because I could still see sunlight when I started driving back from work. I used to hate winters when I was a kid because days were shorter in winters, which meant less play in the evenings as it got dark earlier. I always wished for longer days in the winters so that I could be out for more time playing cricket or badminton or just biking. Today, I got that feeling that I have more time to do things, which I generally wud not do after it gets dark (even if it means going to a grocery store !) and it reminded me of those days when I used to wish for the longer days ! I started thinking of starting going to gym or jogging again which I had stopped a few months back because of the cold (ok.. that may be just an excuse :p).
I still have to do my taxes for the last year. I hope I'll be able to do knock this one of my many pending-since-long tasks off. I'm planning to buy a good digital SLR if I get more than 1k refund. Let's see how things go :-)
