Mark stole your hour of sleep, he's tricky that way.

Retired folks don't know what day it is, or time it is, and don't care.

Grrrr... Mark!!

I'm semi-retired... more like "resting", really... but I like to be up by 7:30am at latest (usually considerably earlier) to enjoy the day and do whatever needs doing. I get very frustrated with myself if I miss out on the earlier part of the morning

better store up on bacon, it might be getting scarce

I had completely forgotten about it and wondered why I didn't feel as rested as I would've expected from 7 hours of sleep. It wasn't like I was completely tired, but I definitely did feel a difference. Only found out the reason in the afternoon.

Bottom shelf Burnett's unflavored, quadruple distilled, and triple charcoal filtered.

I can't tell the difference in it from the top shelf stuff.

A place I've been going to for ages on Sundays for Black Metal Brunch infuses brokers gin with masses of black peppercorns (until the gin itself is black) makes an insanely good Caesar )

Look at it this way. Most of the time before 7:30 now it is still dark, or at least dim.

Of course, you're right... but I like to change all the clocks and heating timer before I go to bed

That's the part I love best... getting up when it's dark or dim, and watching the morning unfold. I'd say "watching the sun rise", but we haven't seen a lot of sun these last few months. Plenty of cloud, though...

I don’t always drink gin, but when I do, I have Bombay Saphire.
