The Time Change Heard 'Round the World

K so if you don't know I moved to LA yesterday then... SURPRISE, I'm here. This post however, will have very little do with my new life because it's going to be all about time. Not like "it's about time you..." but actual time. More specifically time changes. But I guess you knew that from the title so I just wasted 30 seconds of your life and mine. Time.

Okay so, it's weird enough having to live three hours behind the east coast but lately, a lot of my friends have found a fondness for travel and so now I'm:
-1 hour behind my dad who is in Costa Rica
-2 hours behind my brother who is in Chicago and Katrina who's in MN
-2 1/2 hours behind Venezuela (Thanks Chavez, you piece of shit)
-3 hours behind all my East-coasters
-8 hours behind Erica in London and Michelle in Spain
-17 hours behind my lil nigga (Isis)

The list goes on...I'm literally living in the past and it's weird. Right now I'm lounging and watching Air Bud trying to figure out plans for tonight while my brother is pregaming while Mariana (east coast) is having a bon fire while Michelle is probably partying and Erica is definitely drunk. And lord only knows what Isis is doing but it's almost noon of tomorrow for her.

For us to all be drunk at the same time, someone would have to be an alcoholic. Strike that, we ALL would have to be alcoholics.

But anyway, the point of this post was for us all to imagine if the world was under one time zone.

This is hypothetical, I'm just playing. Don't get all science-y on me. Thanks.

What if 12pm just looked different to different parts of the world? Imagine if all the world leaders got together and decided that for a week, we would all be under California's (because I'm here) time zone. The rest of the world would have a "no man's land time" holiday while they waited the time to reset at Cali's noon.  The smart thing would be to drink yourself to sleep but who wants to be hungover for the first world time zone day!? Everyone? Okay. At this point, everyone would be jet lagged as hell but they would have to attend worldwide parties and events thrown by the aforementioned leaders. It'd be a sort of hunger games situation but without the having to kill each other. So not hunger games at all. Maybe like X Games or Crossfit Games (hey Matt!), if I knew what those were. But more fun. I just want to experiment everyone going through their day at the same time. The world would probably collapse but it would be a fun experiment. I'm gonna stop now...I'm confused. Time is a terrible thing to waste and I just wasted way too much time writing this post. Oh my god. Bye.

I obviously didn't think this through and if you were able to follow my logic, I salute you. You are a true friend.

Aight, I'm put ya'll through enough today,
