Trivia, early edition

I took a quiz this morning, discovered by following random blog-links as one does.

You're 6:49 a.m.
You're the time of day right around sunrise, when the sky is still a pale bluish gray. The streets are empty, and the grass and leaves are a little bit sparkly with dew. You are the sound of a few chirpy birds outside the window. You are quiet, peaceful, and contemplative. If you move slowly, it's not because you're lazy — it's because you know there's no reason to rush. You move like a relaxed cat, pausing for deep stretches that make your muscles feel alive. You are long sips of tea or coffee (out of a mug that's held with both hands) that slowly warm your insides just as the sun is brightening the sky.

I'd say that is pretty much spot-on: the moment before dawn is indeed my favourite time of the day, and one of the reasons I love winter is that this moment occurs so late in clock-time.

More later, perhaps.
