Squandering Time

Posted on November 4, 2004 in Routine Writing Groups

I was just getting my things together to go out to my writer’s group and realized that it was only 5 PM. We meet at 6:30 PM. On the radio today, I heard an announcer misread the time, stating that it was twenty to eight at twenty to nine. Again, the darkness and confusion surrounding the change of the clocks discombobulates not just me but the rest of the world. My body wants to lead me to perform certain routines but it is not yet time.

We all live in denial of things that upset our equanimity. I think the switching back and forth of the clocks is one of these things.

After this and after the horrible election, I’m going crazy. What about you?
