Derp-a-doodle-doo!! |
Today is April 19, and the sun rose at 6:39. The sun will set at 8:15.
In California, we'd call that August.
August in Idaho, the sun won't set until after 10pm. This is a very strange thing for me.
When I was younger, I would read about Alaska, and the sun never really setting in the summer. In the winter, the sun would never really rise. In my mind, that was Alaska. The rest of the US had 'normal' movements of the sun.
It didn't dawn on me (get it? ha...) that I'm now living 830 miles farther north than I used to, therefore the days are going to be longer in the summer, and shorter in the winter.
I usually set my internal clock by the sun. I start winding down my day when the sun sets, especially in the summer. Now that it's going to be about 2 hours later than I'm used to, I fear for my sleep schedule.
