D.s.t.

Or Daylight Savings Time, ended at 2:00 AM this morning. This important reminder is to help anyone trying to start watching football games at the right time today. Go Seahawks! EDIT: For you grammar police, I did capitalize D.S.T. in the title, but the grammar Nazi software "fixed" it anyways.

Commuting season is over for me. Darkness + rush hour + clueless drivers = too much risk for me.

That's what I'm thinkin' too.

Good to get the football games started on time, now that the awesome baseball season is over. (Yay Sox!)

The worst thing about DST is having to wake up at 2AM to reset the clocks.
Then an hour later you have to do it again.

The long shadows during this afternoon's ride reminds me to pull out the blinkies and reflective vest.

Yep, I need batteries too, tomorrow. Yay, the Seahawks beat Tampa Bay 27-24 in OT, to go to 8-1. It was one of the weirdest games I've ever seen, those winless Bucs looked like they were gonna pull the upset of the decade, at half-time, it was 21-0 Bucs.

I wonder what my boss would say if I called up and said I'll be telecommuting until DST starts again! No.... He's good to me but I think i'd better continue commuting to work.
