Okay, who already set their clocks forward an hour?

Screw it, I just set mine forward so I don't have to stay up until 2am to do it...

Who stays up to change it? Almost everything I have does it automatically. stuff that doesn't will get done before I go to bed.....or in the morning.

I get up first change them all including the trucks & car before my wife even gets up.

Nowadays I'm surprised that clocks don't have their own clocks as everything else does it seems.

I think he was being silly ... the idea of sitting there waiting to change it is absurd, no?

At least I thought it was funny.

I loathe daylight savings time. Loathe.

Just when it was starting to be light at 6AM, we get plunged back into darkness.





Loathe.

Loathe.

Do you fear it also or is it just loathing?

I though it was silly too so I responded in kind. However I never saw the anger and hatred accompanying fear and loathing that comes out here twice a year just because the time changes. Maybe all the traveling I did across time zones at work had something to do with it, but to me it's "The time changed, so what?" Then again I'm more of a night person so lighter later is good for me.

Wait, what? This is a GOOD thing: those damned birds outside will be waking up and making noise an hour later starting tomorrow!!! I repeat: a GOOD thing.

Yeah, I didn't think it through. I'm already messed up trying to see when the sec basketball games come on...

Go CATS!
