What goes around comes around.

When you're young and crazy, staying up 'til all hours of the night, what matters most on the weekends is how late things are open. What's the latest time you can order a pizza? the latest the video store is open? The latest you can make a beer or grocery run?

But the bitter irony is when the tide turns, and you grow up, get responsible, and then reproduce- what then becomes important is how early things open. You get up at the BCD (butt crack of dawn) with your little bundle of joy and need to get out of the house, so the fact that the grocery store opens at 6 and Target at 8 AM is money in the bank. And damn Blockbuster and the mall all to hell for having the audacity to open at 10!
