Daylight Savings Time

So at 6:30am in NYC today is resembled 4am.

Uh, its October, shouldn't Daylight Savings Time have kicked in by now?

Why am I so pressed?

I want that extra hour of sleep! Duh! Lol!

But really, my SAD is kicking like a - what kicks?- a baby ready to come out!

I fell asleep around 9pm and was up at 11pm; then 1:30ish; and then 5:30am. So that's about 6 hours-ish of sleep. Not bad if done consecutively, but the choppy stuff sucks.

Here's my idea:

VIA EMAIL

Dear Senator Obama:

With an estimated 5 million Americans with bipolar disorder, I gues-timate at least 1% are registered voters. That's 500,000 people all of whom would vote for you if you get the daylight savings time thingy to kick in this weekend.

While we're asking, if you could delete the 1-2pm hour after lunch period of the day when we all feel sluggish, this would ensure that those of us who finish work at 5pm under the present time would really be finishing at 3pm when the sun is still shining (once you approve the prior request, of course).

And one more thing: can you pass a bill that all people with bipoolar disorder are exempt from work on non-sunshiny days?

Senator Obama, forget the female and black vote, there are more of us.

Sincerely,
The Butterfly
