LOL! So I'm not the only one that finds himself doing fine the first |
| 6 |
couple months (well, after about the third day anyway) while the new year |
| 7 |
is still new enough to be thinking about, but then come March and April |
| 8 |
when he's no longer thinking about it, finds himself writing the OLD year |
| 9 |
again! |

Not to worry /too/ much. In another several weeks you'll finally get |
| 12 |
your fingers trained to write 2012, and then you'll be OK... until next |
| 13 |
year when it happens all over again! Here, I'm usually about finished |
| 14 |
with the adjustment by mid April, tho there's been a few years where the |
| 15 |
problem has triggered a time or two in June, even. But I don't recall |
| 16 |
having the problem after June, ever. |

Unfortunately, I had a similar Y2K triggered problem... with a cycle time |
| 21 |
in years. For some reason, about 2008 or so, I suddenly found myself |
| 22 |
writing 199... again! The only explanation for THAT I can think of is |
| 23 |
that it actually TOOK that long for the novelty of writing 200... to wear |
| 24 |
off. I didn't have so much problem with 201... but based on that, I |
| 25 |
won't, either, until 2016 or 2018. |
