I was just thinking to myself, you know what would really make my day a lot better? If the sun went down at 5:10. After all, who needs all those hours of daylight, and that sunshine, and that warmth on the drive home from work. I much prefer the biting cold (well, relatively speaking of course…it’s a bone-chilling 67° right now), the encroaching darkness, the mass of headlights like so many raccoons scrambling back to their holes, teeth bared, ready to claw and scratch and bite any other vermin who would get in their way.
You’ll be hearing things like this from me for the next six months. Get used to it.
