Heart of Darkness

[Pangloss62]

I don't know about you guys, but I've really been enjoying waking up to darkness over the last week or so. You can feel like you're getting up wicked early without having to actually do so. And it's felt "normal" for me temperature-wise lately here in Atlanta. The cold and morning darkness seem to go together. For Atlantans, my normal is their "too cold."



We all "Fall Back" one hour this Sunday, unless you want to wait till Monday morning and get your bonus hour on a workday. Of course, now it will get dark wicked early, which I also like. I think it's nostalgia. Or maybe it's neuralgia. Whatever it is, it makes me recall coming home in the dark after a long afternoon of bagging groceries at the Wellesley Supermarket where I used to work after school.

So, it's back to Standard Time until April. It will get dark the earliest on Dec 20, but from then on, the days get longer and longer.
