Time on board the Barge...

I had someone suggest to me the other day that we didn't have the same Wednesay and cited that her watch didn't change when she came here. Tis my understanding that when one travels one changes one's watch manually to match the local time. Howie and I have had no trouble both knowing the days of the week and when Christmas

I think I've got local time. It's Thursday, isn't it?

[young_idealist]

So far as I know, yes.

Thanks for checking in.

Are you less bored with the environment yet?

[gingerspeedster]

I think I've made something like a hundred ornaments and been berated for my choice of words. Not bad work for just over a week, if I do say so myself.

[young_idealist]

Berated for your choice of words? Should I ask what you said or will it simply cause more trouble?

[young_idealist]

Do you know why some people think it's a Problem?

Oh never mind... People seem cranky with me.

I don't find it particularly important to know the days - but I have a clock and...calendar, of sorts, little though I use them.

Morning is when breakfast is served, night is when the vast majority of the population walks the halls.

If you wish for something interesting to study, may I suggest the increasing occurrences of insomnia?

[young_idealist]

I don't know how to study that, monsieur. People don't tend to answer questions put publicly with any honesty.

[most_feared]

I usually live by a 37 hour day and a 19 month calendar, so it doesn't matter to me.

[young_idealist]

Does that mean you're adaptable?

[most_feared]

Pretty much.

We've got a local time...?

[darknessb4me]

I haven't seen a single clock. I assume when people start sleeping it's night, but that's about all.

[rayney_day]

For those of us with a nocturnal bent, a place like this plays all hell with your cycle, I can tell you that much.

[darknessb4me]

Well, what's the difference, here? You may as well be awake during the "day" and call it night... There's no sun to rise or set.
