Round 130, Hour 33
Oct. 30th, 2022 08:00 amGood morning rushers! How has the void been for you all? Due to the clocks changing I’m awake far earlier than I’d like, so I’m hoping to get some words in! Any one else unwillingly active or are the rest of you in similar time zones all discombobulated or just plain confused by the time change?

(I had grand plans, when moving three time zones west, of sleeping at the same clock times I was doing according to the time zone I left. as you can tell from how it's one-thirty in the morning in the time zone I'm in, four-thirty in the one I left, this did not, uh, work.)
my brain wandered off a while ago and my cat is giving me stink eye for typing and she will probably escalate to chewing on my wrist soon, which isn't terribly bothersome as she has no teeth but is still an annoyance

Though mine usually involve starting at 2 in the afternoon, or half 6 in the morning so don’t actually feel remotely arduous, unless I have to do alternate days instead of weeks.)
