It is not 10:48 am! I don't care what anyone says it's 9:48 am!!! I know it's been a while since I have written one of these blogs, but I have been busy. So I am trying to at least write one blog a month, not that anyone cares because all I am is rambling my complaints to a computer screen then you read it and think I am nuts. Which isn’t far from the truth so let’s continue shall we?!

I am not a morning person, though when I am fully awake (which happens once I have injected caffeine into my system) I tend to accept the fact that I am indeed awake and try make the most of my morning. My morning ritual is fairly simple as I have explained in the past, I stagger half asleep to the device that produces caffeine, push the button that looks like a cup and the miracle liquid comes out and then I drink it. I pull on clothes; shove some 'almond' coloured make up product under my eyes so it doesn't look like I have been in the basement of a pub trying to beat up Brad Pitt like in fight club. Somewhere in between there I have stand under the water from the shower for too long still trying to rationalize with myself why am I awake, brush the plaque away from my teeth and drag a brush through my hair so I don't look like Ross Noble on a bad hair day. Then hop in the car and go to work thinking about what it would be like if the slow car in front of me suddenly exploded. You know a normal morning.......

So when someone fucks with my process you will be able to understand why I don't accept it with open warm loving arms. This proves to me how stupid the Australian Government really is. How could they have possibly of thought that depriving the laziest country in the world of one hour of sleep each morning was a positive idea? I woke up this morning at 7:00 am and I thought it was still night! When it's dark I sleep, when it's light I am awake. It's not hard! Australians are not bats, we are not nocturnal (except for on the weekends)!

The extra hour messes with my mind as well. I'm sure they meant well I mean the concept is a good idea in theory. Extra leisure time because of extra light, more time to spend with the kids to go to the park or do whatever it is that you do with your kids, go down to the beach to frolic with your mates pretend to accidentally kick sand in their eyes and laugh at their pain you know. But really who the hell wants to spend more time with their kids after a gruelling 8-10 hour day at work when all the kid is doing is pulling on your shirt going 'Mummy/Daddy I want to play horsy!!! I want to play horsy now!!!!' Which of course means you have to get on all fours while the kid hops on your back and kicks you in the ribs with both feet screaming 'giddy up horsy! Faster horsy! I SAID FASTERRR!!!!” While you’re struggling to stay awake and thinking 'why the hell did I decide to pro-create?” What every one wants to do after a hard day at work is to crack open a beer with some good company and some good music in the background, eat dinner and then later if you can be bothered have sex. Who has the energy or is active enough to put in the effort of pretending to be overjoyed to see your family when you get home? I apologize to the people who look forward to getting home to see their family; I just think you’re insane. Plus I am very cynical about a utopian family; the whole cliché of sitting around the dinner table shits me because it's not how it's done anymore. The only time that happens is Christmas.

Everyone’s arguments to get rid of daylight savings are so lame as well! 'It's fading my curtains' or 'the baby can't sleep'. How stupid are you? Get some better quality curtains that are darker so the baby can sleep, for shits sake!

God I am so passionate & cynical today. It must come across like I'm shitty at the world but I am actually pretty happy at the moment. Hehe I love being argumentative.....

Have fun adjusting to daylight savings everyone!

Specifically I'd like to debate whether cannibalism ought to be grounds for leniency in murders, since it's less wasteful. For some reason they'd rather teach us stuff any fool can look up in a book.
