Okay, it’s
that time of year again. And like
always, I can’t help but to complain. Of
all the stupid and totally useless things our government has come up with, Daylights Savings Time
has to be the worst. I mean how screwy
was the logic that brought us this notion that changing everyone’s natural Circadian
rhythm would help people and businesses by having more daylight in the
evening? Personally I think it has about
as much purpose in my life as an ant in my kitchen. If I used the government’s logical approach,
we should all have ants in our kitchen, they would take care of the crumbs that
get dropped on the floor and save us valuable sweeping time...
If not for
the fact that the local truancy
officer would be knocking on my door to retrieve my little cupcakes for being
one hour late every morning for the rest of the school year, I seriously think
I would go the way of Arizona and totally ignore the existence of DST. I think the whole concept should be
abolished, especially in the northern latitudes where evening light can be a
bit long in the summer—as if normal sundown at 12:30am in Nome, Alaska in June
wasn’t bad enough, we just had to make sundown 1:30am...I’m sure the locals appreciate
that.
So, this
morning I raise my coffee cup (at 3:33 am because my sleep cycle is already
screwed up from DST) to George Vernon Hudson
for inventing DST *raises pitchfork* and all of you who will struggle with DST
for the next 6 months.
I am totally with you. I'm am so screwed up sleep wise right now.
ReplyDeleteI know, this will have me off for the next 6 months!!! Really I was up at 3:30 AM this morning.
