Daylight Savings Time.
To be clear, my vacation within a vacation did not take me to New Zealand ... I'm in Nashlanta (Nashville or Atlanta, depending on the day and time).
However, because I didn't read the fine fine print on the calendar hanging up on the refrigerator at home, I *almost* was going to brag on the Facebook today that I got not one, but TWO hours free on this first day of vacation within a vacation (the guaranteed free hour is because being in Nashville has me back in the central time zone).
Just before I composed my post, I did a quick fact check and realized that the US still has many weeks to go before *we* fall back (November 1 this year) ... and concluded that the calendar on the refrigerator is much more worldly than I.
Oops (almost) ... and enjoy your extra daylight you hobbits and kiwis!
SPEAKING OF THE FACT CHECK, 'KIWI' IS *NOT* A SLUR (HOBBIT MAY BE):
