TIME LAPSE

So I got up this morning and looked at my watch to see the quadrennial "FEB 29".

And the watch read "MAR 1".

Fuck.

What is up here?

I got a watch that is not smart enough to lay out the 0229.

Pissed.

It is a Casio G-Shock.

Low mentality chip.

I have had Casio G-Shock watches for ages. Maybe 5 or 6 of them.

Did they all skip the 29th?

I don't think so.

This one is a light weight version of the genré. Maybe that is it.

I got it because it was on sale.

Maybe that is the deal.

They ran a whole bunch and realized too late that they had let the 29th out.

Whatever it is I am not amused.

Cheated out of my 'experience' of seeing the date roll over.

But I am over it. I am moving on with my life.

I can tell you that there will be another watch in my life in 2012. And I know what to check out before I buy.
