Spring Forward, I Guess...

In day job news, we spent seemingly half the day trying to change everything for the impending change to DST here in Indiana. Almost nobody seems to know anything about how this is supposed to happen. It was worse than prepping for freaking Y2K. The rest of the world wonders why Indiana doesn't have DST, but we Hoosiers wonder why everybody else bothers. I guess at 2 a.m. Sunday we'll figure out why. Have you ever noticed on your Windows preferences Indiana has its own dropdown choice? Now, no more. At least we still have John Cougar Mellencamp, David Letterman, and Garfield that we can call our own.

This DST is outdated. And it always messes me up for a week. Last night I didn't go to bed until 3 a.m. When I tried at 11 it felt like 10. Then 1 a.m. came and I started to worry about not being able to go to sleep and being tired the next day. Then 3 a.m. came and I finally collapsed. I'm sucking down the diet cokes like they're water in a dessert, just to get through the day.

BTW - Bruins vs. Gators up in your neck of the woods. I'll be watching it on my projector screen in High Def with a few Gator alumns... should be fun.
