4.74/365: daylight fading

That’s a Counting Crows song, but really — today has me beat. I feel awful. Achey and tired and depressed. I took a two hour nap and I can never nap anymore. Daylight Savings never affected me until about a year ago. It’s not just me. FL Senator Marco Rubio introduced The Sunshine Protection Act, which would move us permanently to year-round daylight saving time, meaning we wouldn’t “fall back” in November.

From NPR:

The effort is supported by a bipartisan group of lawmakers, including Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts, who echoed Rubio in highlighting the potential benefits of extending DST. “Studies have found year-round Daylight Saving Time would improve public health, public safety, and mental health — especially important during this cold and dark COVID winter,” Markey said.
