Revenge of DST
Readers of this website may know that I like to brag that the Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com-Vicinity (The State of Arizona) does not observe Daylight Saving Time.
Well, today I had to change my clocks (well, one of them.)
When I woke up this morning, I did not notice that my watch had stopped. On my drive to a Doctor’s appointment, I noticed my in-dash clock was not accurate (it runs fast, and every two weeks I have to set it back 5 minutes.) So I looked at my watch and it had a timestamp of 5:04 PM Sunday night.
The battery had died.
After my doctor’s appointment, I went to the local mall where, four years ago, I had the battery replaced, and it was still under warranty.
My comment to the watch repair woman, “My watch decided to celebrate Daylight Saving Time by stopping.”
But, I fear that I lied in my preamble. The watch repair woman was the one who set the correct time of my watch.
Share and Enjoy!
