i suffer from sunlight deprivation so this time of year I'm especially cranky, i always look forward to winter solstice and increasing daylight even if it is just 4 seconds worth. :)

Time to drag out the blackout curtains for the bedroom!

Are the extra four seconds at the beginning of the day, or the end? [Coffee]

So you're using the sunlight defense for Usually Cranky. Good to know.

I've been on the 12a-8a shift at work for a bit now, I'm definitely grumpier than normal when I don't see much sunlight. I can't get off this shift fast enough.

Will be weird in Alaska.
Where I will be, I will gain over 6 minutes a day.
I will also get about 40 minutes more sun a year than here over the course of a year.

Yes, the best defense is "curmudgeon".

You'll also get 6 months of a dusk . That snowfall and artic low means something entirely different in AK.
I know minnesota has some big skeeters. In AK they're big enough to fuk a turkey on all fours. There's an up side to AK living, unfortunately i'm too old where anything colder then 40 deg, puts a damper in my day.

The skeeter is the minnesota state bird. In AK they're big enough to fuk a turkey on all fours. There's an up side to AK living, unfortunately i'm too old where anything colder then 40 deg, puts a damper in my day.

Fixed it for ya!

We're heading the right direction now, and that's a good thing. Too bad there are several months of potentially shitty weather to go through first though.

Eventually I WILL be living in a more temperate climate, and I'm looking forward to it.

The sun seems very low on the horizon during mid day here. It was getting dark at 4pm there for a while. Now it's getting dark at like 4:05pm. Winter sucks everywhere...just not as cold here.
