Walking in to work this morning, clear skies, can see all the stars.
But it's dark out. Almost got run over by the drivers who didn't notice me until the last second because of the snow banks (not much of a shoulder yet)

I do not like this Daylight Saving crap.
It surely ain't saving me anything.
I go to work at 6:00am, take a 2 hour break at 3:00pm, then get home around 8:30pm.

It's now completely dark when I go to work, and when I get home.

I kinda liked the DST thing... when it happened later though. I need the extra daylight after work to finish the spring/summer/fall yard chores.

But this March craap - just doesn't seem right.
None of the things I need the extra daylight for - are happening in March
