I’m starting to wonder if anyone wears a watch anymore. Today in the store we kept having people ask me what time it is. I wear a watch but it seems I’m one of a few. The surprising thing is that some of them were older people. I’ve noticed this issue in other places. School being one where the student relied on the bell tower to tell them if they were late for class. I know most students are horrible with time anyway, but a few learned their lesson when the bell tower stopped working one day. I found it funny, others did not. That could be because it was during exam week.

It’s not hard to get a watch I have seen some great jewelry watches that are not that expensive some websites will even give you a free watch with any purchase. I also have found some nice TAG Heuer watches that cost more but look good. I think though that many people use their cell phones or rely on everyone else to tell time. Maybe it’s just me, but if I see a person wearing a watch I think that is someone who cares about where they are going and when they get there.

Stupid me read everything I could about earth hour and still didn’t get that it was a traveling thing. In other words at 8pm in every time zone lights will be turned out in several major cities. So that means that at 8pm EST tonight (March 29th) I will be turning off my computer and reading by candle light.

I can’t believe I missed the part about it being 8pm in each time zone. I don’t’ think it said it that way. The article I read stated 8pm Sydney time and 0900GMT, meaning 9am. I wish they would not use army time in articles, it’s really confusing even though I knew what it meant I don’t think the person writing it did.
