Clock of the Longer Now


We change the clocks today and how have so many clocks sprouted in my house without my noticing!? There's the microwave clock which I changed in such grogginess, I think I set the cooking timer for 5 hours or so. There's my Dunesbury clock on top of my computer monitor, it has sea green rubber square edges, a gift from a dear friend when we went to Starbucks in Santa Monica shopping once. There's my Casio wrist watch — an analogue/digital combo — the clock face set to EST Boston and the digital set to London time. My Sprint cell phone took care of its own clock, still amazes me how that works. And, of course, there's the software clock, Bill Gates not letting any of us forget the daylight savings time switch. Off to calibrate my clepsydra!
