We have now reached the point in the year where 9 o'clock at night still looks like early evening because it's bright out forever.

Oh, how I am counting the days till the solstice!

I actually like it being lighter later, but to a point. I spent a summer in St Petersburg Russia and it never got dark, and that was pretty awful on my sleep schedule.

Yeah, there are a lot of people who are happy about the current schedule. And I am happy for them! But not so much for me.

I am a lot happier during the darker half of the year. Excessive sunlight makes me cranky. The idea of being in a place where the sun essentially does go down for part of the year is kinda one of my ideas of hell.

I actually get less depressed as there is more sunlight, and I spend more time out in it. It's one of the reasons I started taking vitamin D during the winter, to try to stave off some of the ickies.
