After grabbing food, I spot some gin on the shelf of a corner market. Having not yet found any in Tel Aviv, I wandered in to grab a bottle. When he rings me up, he asks if I want some plastic cups, apparently presuming I was going to drink it on the street. No brown bags in this city!

So I come home and have a glass of gin and get ready to go out. I get dressed and then try to finish up some work. I was told not to come to the dance party until after 1am or else there wouldn’t be anyone there. So I am shooting for 2am or so. Around 1:55am, just in time, I finish up what I’m working on and start getting ready to head out. Just as I’m leaving I check my cell phone and see it’s only 1:01am. Confusion ensues. I was using my computer clock before, so obviously one of the two is wrong. But when I go back to look, my computer says 1:01am. And then I realize that DST must have just ended.

Does that mean it’s too early to go out now? SO CONFUSED.

I still have only seen about 3 or 4 hours of full daylight in this city. Will my internal clock ever adjust? Do I want it to?
