Entry: The Sun Sale! Monday, March 12, 2007



The day I have been dreaming about since last November is here!!

OK I see Blogdrive couldn't figure out the DST thing. It says that I am writing this at 5:52am when it is really an hour later.

Some of you may know of my abhorrence of Standard Time otherwise known as "let's have the sun when no one is awake and let's make it dark when everyone is trying to get home from work" time. I hate it. I refused to change back my clocks last year. I boycotted the whole stupid idea.

But it was light when I did my evening meditation last night and light when I watched 60 Minutes. Wait something is wrong. It is supposed to be dark when I do those things.

OK, I admit. I don't like change. But I think I am changing my love of DST. Yesterday on CNN, in between the earth shaking stories of Anna Nicole Spears and Brangelina they mentioned that DST wasn't introduced for the farmers as most of us believed. In fact farmers disike DST as much as I dislike Standard Time. But it was introduced to stimulate shopping. Yes, fucking Walmart time.

It seems this whole society is based on spending. Spending, spending, spending! Oh Doug, it makes me want to puke.

So I say BOYCOTT standard time! Who's with me?

Anybody? Hello?

Oh good grief. If I spent all my time boycotting all the things you want me to boycott, I'd never have time to tell you to boycott all the things I want you to boycott.

I kinda like the sun staying out later - but I will whole heartedly admit that I DETEST waking up and driving to work when it's pitch black outside. That totally sucks.

I say pick ONE already! Shopping? Oh! The conspiracy!

But never mind that... what's happening with Brangelina?

Giggs...WHAT??? NOW you agree with my 5 point manifesto that I laid out in November about boycotting Standard Time! You can't have it both ways. Either pitch black at 6am or 6pm. You choose. No fence straddling, Giggles Kerry.

jer....you betcha. Blows chunks.

Abb...Well so the dish goes that she and Brad are actually the same person. Have you ever seen them together?! I know! Freaky. Oh and she is the baby's daddy of ANS. Swear. I heard it.
