Summary

2/29

There are 365 days in a year... and 6 hours. Those six hours are only called to attention every four years when an extra day gets added to the calendar- February 29.

Brooklyn, a quiet girl with Asperger's Syndrome, is an expert on calendar patterns. At least, she used to be. She overthinks these extra six hours while no one else gives much thought to them. Follow her thoughts through four New Years and the Leap Day that confirms them as she deals with obstacles ranging from non-practical orthodontists to crush habits to figuring out who she's been at heart all along, and learns that a lot can change in four years.

I really like your blog post! It's somewhat reminiscent of the voice over in the film Amélie.
