Get ready for the worst day of the year (after New Year’s and Valentine’s Day).
Tomorrow morning, much of the United States will “spring forward” as we enact once again the hideous custom of Daylight Saving Time.
All across the country bleary-eyed folk will adjust their clocks, only to wind up destroying things or injuring themselves because of disrupted sleep cycles. The risk of stroke always spikes the day after the time shift, and productivity plummets on Monday due to worker fatigue. But it’s all worth it, I suppose, just so that we can have a little extra light at the end of the day should we decide to take a walk in the evening.
With this in mind, it may seem rather selfish to recommend that you join the most sleep-deprived of us all (me) this Sunday morning on WPRB, as I present three hours of music about clocks, time, sleep, dreams, sleeplessness, somnambulism, and morning come-too-soon.
But present it I shall, for your consideration, this Sunday from 7 to 10 EDT on WPRB 103.3 FM and wprb.com. The evenings will be brighter, even as the circles around my eyes grow darker, on Classic Ross Amico.
