The February Calendar

A friend of a close relative visited me about nine months ago. She thought that I needed to decorate my kitchen, so she went out and bought a calendar and hung it above my stove. I didn't do anything with the calendar, so it stayed on February for four months. During this time I didn't exactly live off-the-calendar. I had a general idea of both month and day. But whenever I looked at the calendar it felt like February kept repeating itself, like a record with a skip. I finally threw the calendar out, just three months before the start of another February.
