Sigh..I hate this time of year--it gets dark here at 5 p.m. :-(
- Thread starter Lola
- Start date
For the last couple of days it's been getting dark at like 3:30. I have to go buy groceries and don't even feel like leaving the house. I guess that's whole purpose.
Damn..where do you live that it gets dark THAT early????!!
Yeah...i'm not as motivated to get things done since the sunset's are earlier....today's sunset is set for 4:28 PM here in NY
LOL...it's okay. Real feelings.
Yes, this has put a damper on my spirits for real. I've been in the house all day, messing around and it's about to get dark and I didn't get any sunlight today at all. Sigh.
I wish they would stop messing with the time. I liked it back in fall when it got dark around 7:00 p.m.
y'all carazy...
i must be a night owl. i love the darkness. living in the city, the early darkness is especially fly. the sky seems clearer at night this time of year. that's the country boy in me. i love the city, but i got mad love for nature as well...
don't let the darkness get you down. that's some European shit. embrace the darkness. love the darkness. besides, there's a gang of things you can do in the dark that you just can get into when the sun is up...use your imagination...

Considering we are the "sun people" I have to disagree with you on that one...
I like this time of year because I never want to go out. I will be in the gym more to get right for the summer.
This winter I plan on adding dance and pilates to the mix.

Actually the shorter days can affect certain people's serotonin or melatonin levels in the brain. This can cause different effects for different people. Not a MD or anything I just read an article about once.
You're right. It has absolutely nothing to do with race but just being a human being.
We all have a circadian rhythm that follows the natural pattern of sunlight. It is our own internal clock and if it is off, everything else can be off in our physical and mental being.
Exactly what i was gonna post.
I'am a autumn person (not too cold not too hot) but i love night time i do everything at night including work. The streets are empty ,it's quiet, cool, not too bright. Put on some slow music roll the window down and let the cool breeze touch your face and go through your hair. speed down the street. People are alot more relaxed at night. When you walk down the streets you get a nice pleasent feeling and you can hear all of the sounds your foot steps make. I like the orange glow that the street lambs give off. The air is clean, clear and crisp and it's nice when you can see the moon and the stars. Baltimore is covered in frieght train tracks so i like to watch and listen to the trains pass look at some of the graff pieces and see if i recognize any names . clears your head and gives you time to think.
Where are you located.
I'm one of those people who like the nighttime, I love it when daylight savings time is not in effect. But in San Antonio you can hardly tell, In New Orleans 5:10, 5:15 its dark.
I only hated it when I was young because of the street-light rule
In Cleveland it gets dark about 4:45-5:00
you gotta remember what happened when it got dark for Euro's, shit wasn't pretty in the dark...
what the fuck was gonna happen to us in the dark?
think about why there is even a daylight savings time. we didn't make that shit up. these cats are trying to "preserve" daylight. if that isn't motivated or based on some type of subliminal fear, i don't know what is. how the hell can you preserve time?
that's carazaay too...
i love the sunshine, but i appreciate the night. i love the night sky, the moon, the ability when possible to look into the universe and realize how insignificant i am as an extension of the universe...
it's awe inspiring. can't do that in the daytime any time of year...

I hate that it gets dark soo early too! Simply because I hate driving at night. My poor little car is so slow, all the lights from the other cars be right in my eyes.. And I already wear glasses/contacts so that shit is just depressing...
but like you Iron, I love some of the things about night. I miss sitting on lifeguard stands on the beach just feeling the breeze in my hair.
