How do you know what the date is? i.e. calendar, watch, etc.

[bertha katzenengel]

Seems a silly question, but then I am a silly girl. Since I haven't been working I had to look up what the date is nearly every day.

How do you track the date?

1. I'd rather not know

Seeing as time is but an oppressive construct created for control of masses of people.

But other than that silly thought, calendar for the actual date. The sad part is that days have a feel, and nobody asked me my opinion when they started time, I was just thrown into it. It's tough to even think about having no concept of time it's so omnipresent.

Thanks for the silly question though. I do enjoy thinking about, and questioning, time.

5. Between my cell phone

computer, car clock and even microwave, I can always see the time. I don't wear a watch anymore.

7. It's time to kick this thread, my dear bertha!

The main way I know the date?

It's on my watch!

I normally know what day it is.....but not the date......

And since I always wear my watch........I'm set!

I just seem to know, maybe I check my computer, my cell gives the date. I never really think about it.

15. Check my PC - it's almost always on

and it's official Apple time, so it's close to being really acurate (edited to add: unlike my spelling, why didn't I click on "Check Spelling" before submitting?)
