I thought that wasn't till April!
Nope. Thanks to Shrub (or the congress at that point) it starts later in the fall and earlier in the...well...winter. It certainly isn't spring.
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hear that Spring? YOU HAVE ONE WEEK. GET HERE NOW.
I keep having dreams like that, when I open a small door in my house and discover there's a whole other, nicer wing to the place. Or the basement is furnished and I never knew.
I've totally had this dream, often enough that it's almost lucid by now. I know the layout of this imaginary extra wing to my apartment by heart. It's full of dusty furniture and there's a bathroom that looks exactly like this which is constantly flooding.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I've got a cityscape that keeps coming up in my dreams. It's mostly brick and cobblestone in a whole patchwork of architectural styles. The whole thing is on a long, long slope leading down to what I think is a river.
Anyhow, the place is a frequent setting for any number of otherwise unrelated dreams.

I'm apparently the weirdo who likes a later sunrise and a much later sunset, because that's when I get my living done.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am no fan of the extended DST. It already feels confusing when it's still light at 5:30 and g.d. freezing out.

I'm not looking forward to going to work in the dark again, although I have been spontaneously waking up earlier than my alarm so maybe my body is getting ready for that transition.
I like DST fine in the summertime when there is plenty of light to go around.

Sorry to airport post and run. I am in MD packing Maria. We had planned this a while back, I think we discussed it in thread some. anyhow, maria totally tried to get me drunk last night and I did get well good and tipsy. She and juliana must be related in this dark magic of drunkenness causing.
now we pack.
