Falling Back

For those north of the equator, Daylight Saving Time ended at 2:00 this morning. Of course, Daylight Saving Time was started during World War I by battery manufacturers as a way to get you to change the batteries in your smoke detector twice a year.

As a result of Daylight Saving Time, most of you (except you Indiana freaks - sorry Smed.) probably had to do the same thing I did this morning. When I looked at my alarm clock and saw that it was 9:32, I had to subtract an hour from that to figure out what time it actually was.

And now I have to remember to do this for the next six months. Damn battery manufacturers.

But there is good news. A couple of months ago George Bush signed the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This Act changed the time change dates for Daylight Saving Time in the U.S. Beginning in 2007, DST will begin on the second Sunday of March and end the first Sunday of November.

So anyone who claims that the Bush presidency never did anything good is really mistaken.

I went to a costume party last night... Usually I'm able to come up with a decent costume, but this year I wasn't been able to come up with anything. As a result, I could have had the most lame costume ever this year...

What was my costume? I stenciled on the back of an old shirt "Shirt: $30 Pants: $50 Lame Costume: Priceless!"

I think we can all agree that I need to try harder next year.

So the show I was in has now closed. On one hand, I am happy to have my life back, but on the other hand, I am a little sad...

With most of the casts I have been in, there's been some sort of bonding that usually occurs sometime around the time that the show opens. It's kind of like you have a lot of really supportive best friends. Then the show ends and we all go our separate ways.

There are a few people that I hope that doesn't happen with this time... I suppose time will tell with that, huh?

The show got reviewed in one of the local papers here... I debated on whether or not I'd post the review here - but in the end, I decided 'what the fuck.'

So here it is.

Twice this week I've received email from Andrew letting me know that my Super Duper Gold Membership is about to expire. Now I have to decide whether or not to renew again. Since most of the people I read are still here, I'll probably stay. Besides, I've got no where else to go.
