angry bronze devil

My least favorite sentence of the day

…is from this story on Daylight Saving Time:

You may have lost a bit of sleep, but in the months ahead you’ll gain an extra hour of sunlight in the evenings.

To people like me, who work the graveyard shift, this means going to bed when it’s daylight and waking up to find it’s STILL FREAKIN’ DAYLIGHT.

Spring is on the way and I am seriously dreading it this year. The season itself is fine — I like flowers and peepers and rainy days as much as the next person — I just hate the fact that Spring is the opening act for Summer’s long hot days. Spring rarely lasts long, but once it’s gone, all I’m left with is noise, bugs, sleeplessness, sweating, swearing, sun hats, sunglasses, sunblock, and of course, heat-induced migraines.

Needless to say, I’m not a happy camper. And I want my hour back.

Grrrrrrrr.
