Stupid Time-Change Tricks

The time change managed to convince my brain that it had gotten to sleep in an hour later than usual this morning, even though it had in fact gotten no such thing. As a result, I arrived at work feeling unusually chipper and focused for a Monday morning, and managed to stay that way through several hours of ploughing through my bugzilla inbox.

Now my brain is starting to realize that it's only six-o-clock and its been freakin' dark out for nearly an hour, and I'm feeling a bit less chipper. But I've already had a nice productive Monday, so I figure I'm ahead.

I wonder if I can exploit this effect more regularly. (I suppose I could try just sleeping in an hour later every Monday. Naaah - it can't be that simple.)
