Early bird

We got up at sunrise. Sounds early? Sun rose today at 9:31. At 15:04 it's dark again. Sometimes the only way to see that the day really began is to read the weather section of the daily news paper. But it's better to think the positive sides.

Err.. What's positive about absence of light? Oh, there are plenty:

• there's no need to wait for long to see the sunset;
• no worry about getting sunburn, thus no need for sunscreen either;
• now I can develop photos anywhere in the house since each room works as a darkroom, and
• I can eat dark chocolate, ride a dark horse or do dark business without anyone noticing...

So many good sides...
