I don't know why, but I feel slightly uninspired at the moment. Yet, I feel a strong desire to write. So, this post will be shorter than the average and it will be about watches.
I own two standard watches and one of those necklace watches that has recently become popular. Yet, I don't know if they are really useful. If I want to know the time, I look at my phone or I look for a clock in the room before I look to my watch. I mean, I will go digging around in my bag for my phone for several minutes, rather than casually glance at the watch on my wrist.
It seems kind of ridiculous. But, I think in some ways it does make sense. You have to set a watch yourself, for instance. So, there is always room for human error. You might turn in it a minute or so early, which could cause inconveniences in your life.
Meanwhile, a phone always has the right time. It gets the time from satellites directly and it even corrects for daylight savings time.
But, I think that is only part of the reason. Mainly, I think it is because if my phone is out already, it is more acceptable to check for email or texts.
So, in the grand scheme of things, while watches might be practical, I still go with the less practical phone check.
And that is it. That is the end of my blog. Told you that it would be short today.
Do you where a watch? Do you use it?
