Years ago the government apparently tried to help farmers by giving them more daylight (is it only me that thinks someone in Congress just wanted to pretend they were magical?). Now, twice a year, all of our clocks, watches, cell phones, computers, other assorted handheld devices all end up arguing over what time it is. When I woke up this morning I found myself stuck somewhere in a two hour gap. None of the four devices in my room that tell me the time agreed with any of the others. My cell tells me it’s 8:01 right now, my clock tells me it’s 10:00, my computer says 9:01 and my iPad says 8:45. WTH? And what use is daylight savings these days? NONE! Not even to those farmers for whom the whole thing started. A few years ago the government changed the dates of daylight savings, but couldn’t they have saved us all the hassle and done away with it entirely? Can’t Florida at least do away with it? Come on, Florida! Be smart for once!
Anyway… That’s my rant for the day. Enjoy your extra hour (or two…?). I shall be locked into the new desk and desk chair I bought yesterday (YAY!) and writing from dawn to dusk tonight (have to make up for the entire afternoon I spent putting together my new desk and desk chair…). Good luck, if you’re doing the same.
The iPad at entirely the wrong PART of the hour is a great touch!
And a fitting tribute to Apple.
LoL! It was highly disconcerting at the time! I felt as though I'd been dropped into some kind of time warp. Everything fixed itself eventually, though!
