yes winter owns.....summer sucks...too hot

 

[Liesje]

Why does everyone hate it? I absolutely LOVE that it will stay light out later. Winter is like a dark cave that depresses the hell out of me.. the sooner its over the better!

I hate that now when I get up, it'll be dark again. It was just getting to the point where it was light as I was waking up and it seems to make it a LOT easier, especially if you live in a place where it's cold 8 months of the year and averages less sunshine than Seattle. I like that it was light out when I went to work and now driving home (in Dec. it's pitch dark for both). If they'd waited and left it as usual, it wouldn't be as dark waking up once the switch happened.

I must say though that I am looking forward to some warmth.

last night we did the same thing, but we had 1 hour more last night, so it was a 25 hour day...


and I DID NOTHING ... no party, no nothing

My computer is smart

Mine's not I had to change the time myself. My cell phone didn't change by itself this year, either. I had to turn it off and back on again.

Last.fm hasn't switched their clocks over, either, since all day it's been showing what I just listened to as an hour old.

I just hate that I lose an hour of rest...sleep is precious to me! I agree with the light in the evening. It's so nice here at the moment, a little foreshadowing of summer. (Keyword: little.)

I love the spring time change! I'm not often up much before noon anyway, so what time it gets light out doesn't really concern me.

The time change I hate is the one in the fall when it suddenly gets dark much earlier. Boo hiss.

I noticed that my computer didn't switch until 1:30 am my time...that was 12 EST.

I'm losing some sleep now, but overall, I'm happy with the extra hour of sunlight...it'll really help melt the mountains of snow around here.

not sure if someone has said this already, but the sun doesn't actually stay up for longer because you fiddle with your clocks, dear.

Same here! And I never use the extra hour to sleep in, despite my best intentions...

Four or five days a week I have to wake at 5:15am...it will always be dark when I awake!

I LOVE the fact that it will be light out until 8:30 in early march...I LOVE DST!

My computer and cell phone changed time on their own

I hate winter so Im all about the days being longer and the hot weather coming! Not too much longer and I can start enjoying the beach again

 

[U2Girl416]

my cell phone changed on its own. I manually changed the time on my dinosaur-age computer

but I was bummed that it was so dark this morning when last week I left for work and it was sunny!

Same here, but where I live in Indiana isn't much further east than Chicago. I do think we should be on Central time, like Chicago, instead of Eastern time.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

My stupid-ass work computer is not smart!!!

Apparently the “IT guy” (and I use this term lightly) would have to go around to every computer to adjust the time but he's too lazy to do this so we're stuck with the wrong time for the next 2 weeks!!!!

I've already been late for two meetings...

my sister lives in Indiana as well and I always have to remember we're entering Eastern time, as I adjust the time I leave from my apartment to go visit her. annoying!

I haven't been late today for anything but my computer at work hasn't been changed either, and our IT dept told us not to manually change it and it would be taken care of. Yeah, ok buddy. SURE.

I was waiting for someone to pick up on that

The strange thing is: we actually did lose a lot of snow yesterday due to melting. Coincidence? I think not!

 

[Vincent Vega]

Don't forget, Europeans, to spring forward tonight

Don't forget Daylight Savings starts March 8th this year!!

Getting up and coming home in the dark.

This morning I was awake at 4:30 and it was so dark out. My first thought was next week this will be 5:30 am. That is when the first alarm clock goes off.
