11 Days

I got out of bed at 6:30 today. The sky was nearly pitch black, and the temperature was in the chilly upper 30's. No one should ever wake up to that. Too bad nothing can be done about it.
There is a mild reprieve, however. On Sunday, November 7, Daylight Savings Time will finally end, and, at 2:00 A.M., clocks will be set back one hour. This means you will get an extra hour of sleep, and you can step outside without risking hypothermia, at least for a few weeks. Just 11 days...
