Don't forget to set your clocks ahead tonight.

    Better take a nap if you want that extra hour of sleep back. :eek:

    I hate the first week or two of DST when I can't drag my lazy butt out of bed because it feels to early.

    Wow, I guess that means it is really 12:20 and not 11:20. So when I get up tomorrow at 7:00am it will be 8:00am.

    I hate losing that sleep...it's unnatural.
    They should roll back the law.


    On a unusual note, a few years back when I was managing databases also in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
    The time change affected me even more so, since they have Winter to my Summer, being in the Northern Hemisphere
    and they are 2 time zones away from EST and also don't use DST.
    In the spring, they'd be 3 hours ahead, in the fall, 1 hour ahead...I always had to adjust my meeting schedules and mindset.

    Living so close to the equator, we don't do daylight savings time. The variation in hours of sunlight between the two solstices is only about 20 minutes or so.

    I changed the clocks Saturday night before bed. Things happened as usual until about 8:30 AM when the power went out. Which meant that I had to reset all the clocks.
