It's dark!

I don't remember it being like this. Daylight Saving Time has been ending in the fall my entire life. I know this time of year it gets dark early. I know it has always been this way. I just don't remember it affecting me in such a drastic manner. Nowadays when 7:30 hits I get really tired. By 8:00 I am half asleep. By 8:30 I am drifting off and fading in and out of sleep. By 9:00 I am dead to the world. What am I, 90 years old? This is crazy! I know aging causes changes to your body, but I never thought I'd see the day when making it past 9:00 was "Staying up late". Just last night Tami and I congratulated each other for staying up past 9:00. However, we were both fast asleep before 9:30. UGH!
