I had very little time but quite a bit of fun writing this mini-feature on people at WSU who were born on Feb. 29. President Floyd was really surprised we knew about him technically being a leap day baby, and quite honestly I don’t remember when it came up or how we knew. It made me smug anyway.

This brings up another point, which is that I never proof-read my stories on days as busy as this one.  I usually don’t read them until a few days after they’re published because I have a weird anxiety about it. I did just read this one over, and it reminded me that I don’t do it because then I see a dozen little things with wording or arrangement that I wish I could change.
