stupid clock

i like this clock, which john gave me not long after i moved in here --- simple, clean design and lettering, perfect for the kitchen and i generally use it to check the time as i walk past throughout the day --- it's very accurate, too, because it's radio controlled ---

except when it comes to transitions into and out of daylight savings time --- the reset never occurs when it should, typically varying from a few days to a week or two after the actual time switch --- this year they decided to get it over with and changed it monday morning, putting it an hour early for the next two weeks --- oddly, it's already begun to throw off my circadian rhythm (i actually had no idea the clock time might be a factor but we're all idiots about things like that)
