Damn daylight saving time!
I just had colleagues remind me that summer time is over since last Saturday. This went completely by me, except for my biological clock being somewhat off, and I didn’t think too much of that. Since my primary timepieces all adjust themselves automatically, I probably wouldn’t have noticed for another few days. I feel somewhat stupid now.

OneLessDesk™ by Heckler Design →
At one time, you needed a desk that could handle a mountain of paper, a two-foot-deep monitor, a printer, and a CPU the size of a Labrador.
