This whole daylight savings time thing.
Sunday, October 31st, 2004I am not feeling daylight savings. I’ve spent over 30 years of my life in Indiana, where there is no time change (save a few counties–I spent most of my life in Indianapolis). I don’t know whether DST is beginning or ending. It’s bothersome to have to care. All of these devices that automatically take care of this is confusing [EDIT--i was supposed to, but never wrote about my mobile that supposed to do so--turns out it didn't, and i ended up awake early this morning]. For one, i’d rather not even have to worry about it, set my clock as usual, and get up tomorrow without a care. instead i have to remember which way to turn the clock (my wife tells me it’s backwards).
It seems like such a small thing, but thinking about this makes me really miss home in many other ways.
