An Extra Hour

[poliphilo]

 I was psyching myself up to get out of bed when Ailz returned from the bathroom and said, "Do you know what happened last night?"

"Oh my god," I thought, "Something world-historical has gone down. Please let it be good news...."

And she said, "The clocks went back...."

I had no idea.

This is the first time in my life that I've been caught unawares by this twice-yearly phenomenon. Usually I'll have gone round the evening before re-setting the clocks in advance.

It was rather nice. I got to doze an extra hour and indulge in those fantasies and speculations that are almost dreams but not quite.......

That's the ideal time to found out that you forgot! Zzzz.
