Can't pretend anymore!

I can no longer hide it. I will no longer pretend.

I HATE mornings. I hate early mornings. I hate cold, winter mornings. Most of all, I hate waking up in the dark when my natural clock is saying "NO! Don't do it!" and having it continue to be dark for another two hours. It takes me 2-3 cups of coffee just to get moving these days.

I think morning is a cruel form of torture inflicted upon us by some evil creature with an overabundance of energy. Actually, I know a few people like that.

Anyway, I do enjoy the silence of being up while the rest of my typically in your face family still sleeps but I believe 10am would be a more appropriate time to start the day. At least during a New England winter. So how about it Congress? Let's be rid of the current time table. Let's throw daylight savings out the window. Let's really go on a daylight program. Morning begins when it gets light and night begins when it gets dark. Period. So we'll work pretty short days this time of year. Think of the reduction in absenteeism when workers get three months of shortened days to serve as a "sort of" vacation.

How about it? Maybe I should start a petition.
