Ha! What a lovely way with words you have. That made me laugh.
I’ve recently ‘gone solo’ and I decided to experiment with caring a little less about time. The only starkly visible clock in the house is on the oven, so I reset it. But it still tells a time, and I knew I’d eventually figure out the delta, so I covered it with tape.
It’s funny how lunch is supposed to be at ~midday, but when you don’t know when midday is, does it really matter when you eat lunch? It’s a really, really hard habit to kick. Gradually I get more to the stage where I eat “when I could eat”, but still. Lunch is at lunchtime.
This experiment did make me realise just how much I looked at that clock. Check the time, check the time. To what end? I can’t tell you. That habit does appear to be on the wane.
