Goodbye, Sunshine
Uck! It was dark when I left work today. Far more than the cold, I mind the darkness of winter.

""In any case, fire burns; that's its nature, and you can't expect to change that. You can use it to cook your meat or to burn down your neighbor's house. And is the fire you use for cooking any different from the one you use for burning? And does that mean you should eat your supper raw?"
Maddy shook her head, still puzzled. "So what you're saying is . . . I shouldn't play with fire," she said at last.
"Of course you should," said One-Eye gently. "But don't be surprised if the fire plays back.""— Joanne Harris

Which is the reverse for me, I love the warm darkness of fall when the time change comes...well until now when they pushed it so far back the time change coincided with the cold, which seems to have robbed me of my energy.
The daylight will shorten regardless of our wishes, and we can either have it in the morning or the evening by our arbitrary time, and personally I find it easier to wake up and get working with morning sunlight and enjoy the long shadows and dimming light as I leave work as it seems to put a stamp of completeness on my work day. But then, I work 8-5.
