Sunny side up

11/4/2009

Now that Daylight Saving Time has rolled in for another year I am forced to walk my dog earlier and earlier each evening. I really don’t mind walking in the dark (we have no streetlights) but I prefer to walk after dinner to at least pretend I’m working off some calories, but now it’s gets dark before I even get hungry. These days most all of the clocks we have (cell phone, computer, cable box) reset themselves so I don’t have the pleasure of springing ahead and especially falling back. Heck, being self-employed means I can’t even call my boss and say I’m going to be late because I forgot to reset my clock! If I sound like I’m whining it’s because I am. I like long summer days....the longer the better. At least in recent years Daylight Saving Times has been shortened. As far as I’m concerned they can do away with Daylight Saving Time altogether, but until they do I’ll just try to try to look on the sunny side....even though there’s less of it.

Leigh, FYI We are back to standard time now. Daylight savings time ended, not started. If you like the summertime arrnagement, do not lobby to end daylight savings time. Someone may take you up on it and give you what you ask for, not what you want. I do enjoy your comics. Thanks
