A discussion on rasfc has reminded me that that that abomination, Daylight Savings Time, is supposed to start soon. I hate it. I've always hated it; I get more annoyed by it now than I used to because I get irritated at the notion that noon can be separated from the arc of the sun entirely. (A deliberate rejection of Ra, perhaps it reads to me as, and I ponder the myths and have no red ochre for my booze.) When I was a kid, I stubbornly refused to change my clock in my bedroom. I'd change my alarm, but not the clock. I wanted the time to be the real time.
My response to the imminence of the thing was to get my watch, set it, wind it, and clip it to my jacket. Though I suspect I'll fail to go out enough in general that the watch will run down. I do like my pocketwatch though. Such a good fidgety thing. (And I remember when I met![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
baratron when erispope and I were at Roehampton, and I pulled out my watch, and she said something to the effect of, "Yes, you are the sort of person who would have a pocketwatch." I'd only recently bought it, too.)
I also, as another response, have a strange, potent urge to build an outdoor shrine to Ra centred on a sundial. I can probably get a sundial that satisfies me for that purpose, but I don't have the land to do a proper thing that fits what I have in my head. I hate doing a halfassed job of things. Next house, next house.
Section 130: 521 words. Done.
Section 131: 40 words. Head hurts too much to write more, but at least I won't have a blank page to wrestle with tomorrow. At least it means I try to sleep before Khepri comes knocking on the window.
