Subconscious, hell!  Any personal contact with Steven Seagal is pretty damn terrifying in my book.

I totally frickin' spaced on DST.  A friend called me at what I thought was 10 AM, asking if we were still having softball practice at 11:30.  "Sure are," I said.  "OK, see you soon," he said.  "What do you mean?  It's not for another hour and a half."

I still made it to the field before everyone else.

Especially when that energy consumption is directly related to the sizes of my bills.


at first, i read "bills" as "balls"

anyway, i am voting against daylight savings time just because i feel like lying.  daylight savings time is actually a rather convenient excuse for the next few weeks or so.  i use it for absolutely everything!  the "spring forward" daylight savings time change is the more convenient of the two, because it becomes a good reason for why i didn't have time to do something, instead of just a completely made-up reason.

Another growing unpleasantry: walking to my 9:00 class while the elements are still firmly convinced it's 7:45 or so. Bleah.

Ah, the joys of a Western Massachusetts spring, where it's really winter until about May 10.

We don't do daylight savings here. Being in relatively terms close to the equator (on the tropic of Cancer, more or less) means pretty steady daylight hours. It screws up TV since cable feeds are mainly on West Coast Time, and talk radio broadcast live is also screwed up. But for the most part, we get plenty of daylight, thanks, no need to save it.

AlohaDawg, I am trying real hard not to hate you right now.

How's that working out for you, Wombat?
