Thank heavens daylight saving time has finally kicked in. As you know, the start of DST was pushed back one week by Congress. Apparently, though, my BlackBerry didn't get the memo.

You see, I'm habitually late. I blame my job. I spend so much time trying to meet the constant deadlines of a television news environment, that I have very little energy to show up on time and on schedule anywhere else.

I'm aware of my problem and it's tendency to mess with the lives of others. Consequently, I set all of my clocks at different times so I never know what time it is and move faster. Last Sunday, I woke up thoroughly confused because my BlackBerry had already fallen back, but none of my other clocks had. I was so befuddled by the situation I ended up calling my mother in California to find out what time actually was.

So, thank heavens that clocks were officially rolled back today....my life finally makes sense again.
