A Sense of Temporal Dyslexia

Woke up in a bit of a "Whoa, huh?" mood today.

Seems that a year ago, this was the weekend of "Daylight Savings," that was before the signing of the "Energy Policy Act of 2005."

What this means is you're supposed to move your clocks back one hour next week. The thinking being, it should save energy with the extra month of daylight (it's been studied, it hasn't).

The problem now is that all of my network connected items (Cell Phone, Computer) were at one time, and my clock, my BlackBerry, and DVD/VHS player - which are on a program based on the the Pre-Act Schedule - were at another.

My wristwatch, for all I know, is lying to me right now.

It is 10:30 EDT in the morning, right?

State Fair Get Together

Saturday is the day. I plan to be at the microbrew tent at about noon.

We'd still like to have the BBQ, but we don't know how many people to expect. My plan is to go to the fair and find out who's coming, then we'll meet at our place later on. I think 4 or 5pm is a reasonable time.

State Fair Get Together

It's getting close! State Fair starts on Thursday.

Judging by the comments on my blog, the second weekend looks best for a BBA/Cheddarsphere get-together. I say we pick the 11th, because Saturdays are cool. Last year, we met in the microbrew tent at about noonish? Someone refresh my memory.

Ask me about parking. We can hook a few people up.

Don't forget to save energy the after party at our place (actual start time TBD)!

Note: I believe that I've just stolen the title of "Cheddarsphere Social Director" from Dave Casper in a bloodless coup.

Drinking it Up With the NRO Team

I'll be at the Happy Hour at 6 EDT with the NRO team. Any suggestions as to what to say to any of them? (Jonah will not be there, he's in L.A.)

So far the only thing I can think of is "GO BO SOX!!" when the bar flips on the Yankees-Red Sox game like I know Lowry and Lopez are going to demand they will.
