**** Time Change ****
 

For those of you who observe the time change, tonight is the big night!!
Well, actually at 2:00 a.m. Sunday morning if you like hopping out of
bed at that hour to play with your clocks.

Spring Ahead, Fall Back!

Set your clocks to an HOUR AHEAD, 2AM to 3AM if you are anal about it!

We basically lose an hour of sleep tonight! :-(

I get up to the Sunrise anyway! I think I'm RETIRED!

I can't wait until daylight saving ends here. It'll get light an hour
earlier. I don't care what happens in the evening.

Where I live, the government designated time change harbinger walks
through the neighborhood at around 1:50 AM banging a gong. She screams
"Change your Clocks!" every ten seconds. Her husband accompanies her
for safety purposes.
Can you believe that she's paid fifty grand a year for that? I can't
either ;-)

No loss of sleep here. I go to bed when tired and get up when I get up.

to be manually changed

I actually thought about it before and in STL in the Summer it gets dark almost as late as 9PM and then in Winter it gets dark at 5PM! That's too wide a range in variation! I think we should change the clocks up an hour, then back, then back an hour, then back! To keep when it gets dark around 7PM.

But that's far too complex for the simple human mind!

Yes, it is. We avoid shopping on weekends as it gets crowded. Meals
are when we get hungry. Life unstructured!

Several years ago I went to Walmart on a Saturday; don't know what it was that
I desperately needed as I avoid week-end shopping of any sort. But good grief,
the store was JAM PACKED; children of all ages and what seemed to be bus loads
of them. It dawned on me that it was 2 weeks before school started and they
were all there with their parents buying school supplies. Tax-free week-end
also ensured the stores would be mobbed.

It would take a heavenly command for me to shop week-ends now as I limit it
to Monday-Friday. Always several people in the stores but there are not mobs
of them during the week.

The only 'person' around here that wants me up by 9:00 is Pema, the cat. She
doesn't always get her way.

I'm not retired but I also go to bed when I'm tired and get up when I
get up. It's because I'm nobody's bitch :)

Or I can just let my clocks change themselves. This is the 21st Century,

I worked with a guy that never changed his clocks. He just came to work
at a different time.

I get up at 4:30am every day. Including this morning when it was
3:30am yesterday. Now it will be darker for a while but I don't
care. I also don't care when it gets dark in the evening either.

I do all my things early morning, dark or light. I think this
semi-annual time change is so stupid.

Too late now but next fall, instead of putting clocks forward an
hour....why not just set them one half hour ahead and leave time
alone from then on. A half hour on each end is so significant.
People are idiots sometimes. Well, most times actually. ;)

Don't forget...the dinosaurs ruled this planet way longer than
humans have. Not even close.

Same here, Ed. I never shop on weekends. Only on weekdays early
when stores NEVER get crowded. Also meals here are rarely
planned. I often cook whatever sounds good at the time.

And for those that complain about weekend shopping and so
crowded? Try going at 6-7am when stores are almost empty. Stop
being a lazy, sleepy turd and get out early. Get your shopping
over long before the rest of the cattle show up to overcrowd any
stores.

Don't you pick up women in supermarkets? You should go when they're
more crowded or you'll never get further than ferrets!

Maybe you remember me saying that from years ago. Rather than
being stuck at home in evenings for many years with young
daughter, I would often take her to the beach on my bike, or to
the mall, or just to a grocery store.

Grocery store plan (and it worked well too) was to go grocery
shopping around 7pm on Fridays or Saturdays. Why then? Met many
single unattached women at that time. No dates planned so they
just go grocery shopping to get out of the house....just like me.

Same thing with evenings at the mall and on bike at the beach.

I so loved raising my girl on my own but I didn't want to
sacrifice all my prime years staying home every night. I found
ways to get out and meet people and bring her with me. It was
good times. :)
