I usually start the cocktail hour at 4:00. Today I'm catching crap.

During my working years, it began at 5.
And then I retired and the Cocktail Hour Creep started.
"It's only 4:30, but what the hell. I'm retired!"
Then 4:15, then 4:00.

OK, ya gots to draw the line somewhere or you'll be poured into bed at 2:30 in the afternoon.
SO...4 p.m. and not a minute earlier.

And just now Miz t. said "What time is it?"
"4:30"
"So you REALLY started drinking at 3:00?"
Oh jeez.

Every time we go to DST, we have to play the 'but what time is it REALLY?' game.

1. It starts when the sun is over the yardarm.

That way it doesn't creep up on you.

3. You get out of bed before you start cocktail hour? Slacker.

I'm very disappointed.

:P

4. I didn't say WHERE it started.

While you're up, would you fluff my pillows?
Thanks.
