Fall Back

by Bryan

It’s that time a year when we all get to relive the exciting time between 1:00AM and 2:00AM Sunday morning twice on the same day — yes, it’s the end of Daylight Saving Time.

While most of the clocks I use do it automatically, for some reason I have to reset the blog manually. Maybe in the next up-grade, although I have already failed to install the last one.

Oh, yes.. I think I’ll just change the clocks when I get up, tomorrow morning:)

My computer, alarm clock, and cell phone all work automatically, so it’s just the microwave, the car, and the web site.

 Poems to Scare the Daylight
       Out of You
        and then
     Into You Again

        I. Spring

There is not a finer thing
Than to travel in the Spring.
As you tote your luggage doorward,
SET YOUR CLOCK AN HOUR FORWARD!

         II. Fall

Post this notice in your hall:
It is really, truly Fall;
You’ll receive a nasty shock
If you don’t SET BACK YOUR CLOCK!

– SB the YDD, 1999

To my regret, I have a half dozen clocks and other devices that do not set themselves. But I happened to be up at that hour anyway, working, so I took a break and set them. Now if I can just remember to bill for the extra hour not reflected in the difference between my start time and my stop time…

Try dealing with it in a labor contract, what a joy.
