The Arcane and the Obvious

This morning I awoke to confusion. Half of my clocks indicated the correct hour. Half were wrong.

The ones I hoped were correct... were not. Among these was the clock that alarmed me from slumber. This is a clock that allegedly sets itself. However, it did not seem to realize the importance of tracking the change from CST to CDT.

I am only angry that I didn't assume it wouldn't work. Shame on me, right?

Can we please end this charade? The shift of time does not change anything in my life. There is no gain.

So I skipped my morning bathing ritual, skipped making coffee or trying to eat, and even skipped trying to find clean clothes. I went straight to work without ado. I still arrived late.

For what?
