Yes, Daylight Savings Time is over. And yes, now the suns setting at like five o’clock. And yes, for the next few days, every at least five percent of your friends on Facebook will post a status update along the lines of “UGH! Why doez it have to get dark so EARRRRLLLLYYY!!! OMGZ, I miss summer so baaaddd!”.
Facebook was really made for thoughts like that.
But while you’re sitting at your desk today, silently bemoaning that it will already be dark by the time you get out of work, remember this:

You just happen to be in the one place that’s more beautiful at night than any other place on earth. And you get an extra hour or two of that for the next couple of months.
So let’s celebrate! Grab a cupcake!
