Yeah, Krackels. I'm pretty sure we're in the same time zone...
It's only 11:30 here.... you should lay off the reefers and alcohol at night, so you can wake up IN the same zone we are... hehehehehheeeeeee

11 am is on the cusp of being afternoon. It's one of those tricky things like at what point does it stop being afternoon and start being evening.

morning = the time from sunrise to noon (or, the time from midnight to noon) afternoon = the part of day between noon and sunset So, noon is the exact time when these "parts" of the day change. Technically, from 12:00:00am (midnight) to 11:59:59am is considered "morning." You ARE right about the afternoon/evening being tricky though. It gets less precise towards the end of the day: evening = the latter part and close of the day and early part of the night; the period from sunset or the evening meal to bedtime night = the time from dusk to dawn when no sunlight is visible So, afternoon and evening doesn't have such a clean-cut time for the switch-over, thanks to the time of the sunset always changing. And I'm sure everyone's bedtime is different. Personally, I've always considered 6:00pm the change from afternoon to evening... but that's just me. and in case anyone was wondering about the a.m. vs. p.m. thing: ante meridiem = being before noon (abbreviation a.m.) post meridiem = being after noon (abbreviation p.m.) Again, the magic time is noon (12:00:00pm).

Things about my desk:
1. It's messy, very messy. 2. There's a piece of paper on my desk that had one of its corners curled up. I put a book or something on it and the problem goes away for a while. 3. Talking about my desk let me get a... TOTP!!!!!!! |
