Also, I just realised that daylights savings time has happened over in the US and it won't be happening on this side of the pond until the end of the month.

So for now, deadlines will be 11:30pm GMT/7:30pm EST for days and 2:30pm GMT/10:30am EST for nights, unless anyone has any major complaints.

WHAAA? 😱

Yeahh I didn't realise there was such a delay in the daylight savings changes until I got in an argument with my dad about what time it was last March. He'd called me at the wrong time and kept telling me I was wrong, and I kept insisting he'd messed up counting to five. :laugh: Probably the most inane argument I have ever been a part of.

I am from Arizona and my mom was talking to a company's customer service department about something. She had called them the day before saying that the person she spoke with told her a specific something and now this lady was arguing with her and telling her she was lying. The lady asked my mom what time she called at and she explained what time it was and the lady goes, "well that is impossible we would have been closed". And my mom was trying to tell her no, they would not have been as AZ does no do DST and therefore it was only x time in AZ. The lady continued to argue with my mom then put her on hold and came back telling her that AZ does have DST and my mom was lying. The whole thing was so absurd, especially for someone working in a customer service department.

Rule #1: The customer is always right.
Rule #2: The customer may be wrong but see rule #1.

Since it's spring break for me right now, I'm considering marathoning the show. How many episodes are there?

You can do it. Trust me. I think I watched the whole thing in a week or less. But I'm crazy and watching Netflix is about the only thing I do in my free time.

The episodes aren't long and they also really really beg you to watch them all at once. It's very easy to get addicted. Don't do it if you have actual work commitments. lol

It's not too long, there's only one season at the moment with about 13 episodes. They're about an hour long each, I think I watched them all in a 3 day span when I was bored.
Whooo I can definitely do that, thanks guys!
 
LIS, I really hope you didn't think I meant I wanted to put you on ignore for any other reason than wedding stuff :laugh:

Nope, I didn't.

Are you sure you won't reconsider? I need some bridesmaids, too!!! And you'd look LOVELY in this dress I'm considering:

I mean, can't you just SEE it? Such a lovely, light, springtime bouquet of colors! And those little orange bows are just to-die-for cutesy!

Okay, okay...only if I get to wear those same burnt sienna metallic shoes with it, though.

True story: I watched New in Town last night and its about this prissy lady (Rene Zwekjfdfhjgher) who moves to a small Minnesota town. Pretty sure I imagined LIS, FFM, WS and Dovelover as all part of the movie. The main hunk guy had too much hair to be LIS though... sorry LIS :\

I've seen that movie I think! Isn't she there to close down a factory or something?

The main hunk guy would be Harry Conick Jr who I have met IRL. He is dreamier in person.
