I remembered. I shake my fist at my lost hour of sleep.

Now to motivate and get outta the house within the hour.

This has got to be a joke, and it's hilarious. Life lessons from TLC like, "Merlot and email don't mix" and "Turn off the TV before getting intimate." Heh.

If it's a joke, it's one they've been advertising on tv and in bus shelters for the past couple of weeks.

Feel robbed. Needed that hour of sleep. Only half of clocks changed. Must consume coffee. Sentences might improve.

Yes, that.

I wonder if msbelle got out of the house. I sure haven't.

But I'm amusing myself by looking at film clips of The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain:

Interesting fact of the AM: the Hawaiian pronunciation of ukulele is ooo-koo-lay-lay. It never occurred to me that of course it would follow the actual rules of Hawaiian language stuff.

Needed that hour of sleep.

No freaking kidding. The extra hour we get in fall is always kind of nice, but I'd totally trade it.

Why don't they move the clock on Friday night, so that you'll have the whole weekend to get used to the different schedule?

(Also, hi, Emily! It's been forever since we posted together! How are you doing?)

I've been waking up at five-something o'clock for the last few weeks. I should be able to sleep longer now that it's gonna get light out later.

I only had one clock to set - the rest set themselves....

I think because more people have off Sunday than Saturday.

A very good question.

I'm trying to get up the motivation to go grade papers. However, it's a really nice day outside, and my office has no windows, and I'm really just not feeling the urge to spend all afternoon in a dark basement. (I can't really grade anywhere else -- I need a lot of room to spread papers out, and my desk at home is too cluttered for that, and I'm afraid things will blow away if I try to grade outside.)

More people have Saturday off than Friday here, and still they set the clock on Thursday night. Which I think is a good idea, even when I do have to work on the relevant Fridays.

it's a really nice day outside

We call "Daylight Savings Time" a "Summer clock" (and when we return to the regular clock, it's "Winter clock"). In honor of that, after more than a month of a beautiful weather and a few scorches, as is the way of Israeli springs, we got a full winter's weather today. It's probably the very last of the year, and I'm enjoying it very much, wet feet and all.

I need a lot of room to spread papers out

I usually do it on a bed or on a sofa, with papers spread all over them as well as the floor. And I can't get up in the middle, because they're in a certain order, too.

I got spam from Irony O. Cutthroat and Lovelorn E. Bloodsuckers this morning. Are we sure no Buffistas are working in email sales?
