What is a day?/OTA Weekend
This is an Open Trackback alliance post, all weekend long. Link to this post and track back. More below.
For those of y’all intrigued or puzzled by the question in the post title, don’t expect an overly cryptic or philosophical post. For those of y’all who already think you know what a day is, you’re welcome to read on, cos you’re probably wrong.
Most folks think a day is some arbitrary 24-hour period of time as designated by some anal, obsessive-compulsive dude who looked at the Sun, saw it “come up” in the morning, “go down” in the evening and thought, “Wow! A day has passed! I just have to create a calendar and keep track of these things!”
*feh* Slacker. Anal, obsessive compulsive slacker, but slacker nonetheless.
A day is really that period of time between extended periods of uninterrupted sleep. If it’s 16 hours or 72 hours long: that’s your day, folks.
Slackers, now, real slackers, just walk around asleep alla time, so they don’t really have days…
As I said, this is an open trackback post open all weekend long. Link to this post and then track back. If you want to host your own linkfests, check out

Truly, for it isn’t a new day until you get some sleep. Ha ha, does that mean since baby has been born it has been one long day for me?

An Israeli air strike inadvertently killed Ar-ab civilians.
Well guess what?
The civilian deaths may be sorrowful and lamentable, but they also were perfectly justifiable.

Just how long does the uninterrupted sleep have to be in order to reset the “day” clock? I’m just asking because I strongly suspect that I may still be working on the same day I was having in 1974. Which, in some ways, would explain an awful lot…
