It's only noon, but it feels like midafternoon.
The supposed "gaining an hour" sounds nice, but to me it means that, for the rest of the semester, my trip home MW is going to be later, darker, and colder. (Well, two thirds of that is inevitable, given the turning of the seasons, but even more so.)
The local temp has actually climbed above 50F, and we're supposed to get another couple of days of that, but I'm still going to be wearing my heavy jacket.
I've got another batch of the minestrone casserole cooking - third time this year - but it won't be ready for several hours yet, and I'm vaguely hungry. There's Halloween candy in the fridge, and the sack of pears I bought yesterday, but I shouldn't gorge on the candy and I've already eaten my daily fruit. (It was kind of meh, but that tends to be the case with the first fruit from the sack, for some reason. They'll get better.)
I'm just feeling kind of blah. I've run a couple of rounds of Skyrim today, and didn't really have much enthusiasm even then. This week, I'll have to do the annual Ethics Training, which I've been putting off. It's really a waste of time for me, since most of it has to do with people who can influence purchasing and contracts. (OK, there's stuff about not using university equipment for personal business, especially political stuff, but that's scarcely even a temptation for me, especially since my Internet service is no longer supplied by the university.)
