Not like home

It's an unusual circumstance. The sun rises early here, on the eastern side of the time zone. So do I, as a result. I am out the door on my run before the traffic spews exhaust and back in plenty of time for shower, dressing, breakfast and a walk to campus.

The problem is, I am getting here early! The office does not open until 9. At 9 I am usually the first one here. Many librarians come late and work late - perhaps because of traffic. Right now I am killing time in the Leavey Library Information Commons waiting for the offices to open. The work day is 7.5 hours. At the end of the work day I leave at 5, take the USC Tram home, and have plenty of time for dinner and after-dinner activity. How can this be?
