Remember, set your clocks ahead an hour tonight!

Time to Fall Forward!

Or just leave them flashing 12:00

No, seriously, it's that time of year again to set them 23 hours ahead.

LOL!   I wonder how many here saw this and set their clocks ahead.

I forgot to change my clock, and now, here I am, up at 4am and posting.   I thought it was 4:30 when I got out of bed, and even that was too early.   I guess I'll try to fall back asleep, but I doubt the cats will let me (even though they've just been fed).   This is their time to get rambunctious, and I guess they think I should be a part of that.

edit:   I guess I'll go back to bed now and listen to some talk radio guy drone on about cancer treatment.   It's horrible, but reception is bad and it's either that or Hispanic radio playing their God-awful music or jabbering on about who knows what (probably Jesus or soccer or something).

I always set my clock sideways.

Left for fall, right for summer.

Just invite a bunch of people over to help you and make a party out of it.

Sorta like painting a house or something.

Everyone takes a turn holding down the button for one (elapsed) hour.

Don't know about anyone else, but I got up to pee and couldn't get back to sleep.

Was having the usual "water dream".

Usually involves being at the beach or swimming in the ocean. Wake up, have to go pee. Usually right around 5:30 am, but because of the time change, I was up at 4:30 this morning.

I will be napping later as well.

Heck I got up around 4:00 am some kind of band was playing on TV. I took a shower looked up some stuff on the phone, then went to bed. Got up around 8:00 just in time to catch CBS Sunday Morning.

One good thing about TV-you could always turn it off

I ended up at what the clocks said was 4:00. Unfortunately, my body said it was 5:00 and time for coffee.

Of course now it'll be dark at 6pm, and that's just fantastic. Unhappy

The "extra" hour I supposedly "gained" threw my whole day out of sync. I call it "DST jet lag". Very annoying...

See, that's the whole thing about "Oh, you get an extra hour of sleep!", it's bullsh*t. My body woke up at the same time it does every day... the only difference being that some of the clocks had changed while I slept. So now it's officially one hour EARLIER than I normally get up. Could I have rolled over and gone back to sleep for an hour? In theory, yes. But it's the weekend anyway. No alarms... just wake up when you're ready to wake up.

Now, come time to go to bed, on the other hand... body started saying "hey, let's go to sleep" about an hour (by the clock) earlier than normal. I don't want to go to bed too early, or I'll just wake up that much earlier. So, I stay up until the "time" I normally go to bed.

I have effectively LOST and hour of sleep.

And it's dark at 6pm.

f**k DST.

Also, those of you with employees, I'm going to be a dick and get some of them busted. Not trying to insult anyone's intelligence here, but a lot of people get this mixed up. When your people come in an hour late today and blame it on forgetting to set their clocks... call bullsh*t on them. If they had forgotten to set their clocks, they'd be an hour early this time.

Remember it like this: "Don't FALL for it".
