Still cranky from the DST change. Slept ten hours last night, and it still took a Herculean effort to get out of bed this morning.
What'd you all order a dead guy for?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I woke up at 6. Again. Saw the Big Dipper. Apparently, I am DST immune.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
zzzzzzzzzz
Also, I don't feel like working and would like a day off.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
For the previous 3-4 weeks, I had been waking up at 6 a.m. and then couldn't fall back asleep (my alarm is set for 7:45). So the time change actually worked in my favor for once.
WINNING!

Also winning! The cats didn't start bugging me to feed them at 6 as usual. A few days a week I'm up then anyway but I bailed on yoga this a.m. to sleep in a little and it worked!

Because books.
I woke up to find the cat had puked in the bathroom and also eaten all the way through the cord for the phone base in the bedroom. I think that's losing.

Well you can never win for long with cats.

I love daylight savings, because it means there's daylight when I'm awake. However, I've always had make myself go to bed, and in the transition to daylight savings, I stay up too late. The particularly happens when I'm obsessed with something.
Speaking of obsession, the radiation levels outside the plant boundary have dropped considerably.
The new CNN morning news anchor appears to have the IQ of a carrot. A carrot talking about nuclear power is not a pretty sight.

Ann, that's a ferret.
The new CNN morning news anchor appears to have the IQ of a carrot.
I suspect it's better than the radio announcer this morning who couldn't stop saying things along the line of, "I saw an article that said the radiation is coming to the west coast. It had arrows and everything! And then it's going to come to the east coast! And you say there won't be significant effects, but what does that mean? Because it's ALL THE SAME AIR!"
(Side note: I can't wait for Hubs's car to get out of the shop so we can ignore local radio again.)
Dumb question, Ginger. Is the U.S. at risk for any increased radiation at all from the activity in Japan? If so, are we talking transcontinental-flight levels of radiation or single X-ray levels? (I understand we aren't talking major-increase-in-cancer levels. I just want to have something specific in case anyone pulls that radio announcer's shtick in my presence.)

Now tagless for your comfort.
Twitter is saying there is ANOTHER quake in Tokyo right now.
