I’m going to try something different this year; I am NOT going to turn my clock back an hour. I am going to attempt to stay on the sleep schedule I currently have, in hopes that I will not be tempted to sleep in once spring arrives. @&$\*(!& daylight savings - what a bunch of crap. I’m in Minnesota; I don’t care HOW far you flip the clocks back, we STILL only have 6 hours of daylight in December. Bastards :mad: ---

Wish we could keep the time the same all year 'round. You see come Spring I will have to deal with one less hour. I hate that. ---

Depends on which hour I decide is the “extra” one. Think I’ll wait and use it late Sunday night, and stay up an hour later. ---

I wish I could have an extra hour, but Japan doesn’t do daylight saving time. If I had one, I’d probably use it to drink one more bottle of wine. ---

I have to be at a staff meeting tomorrow at 9:30. So I’ll either be sleeping, I think. I’m so upset at having to be up before noon, I just can’t think straight. ---

I think I will probably be on this computer, instead of sleeping that extra hour, which I need so bad. Wish I was partying instead, but my friend is out of town. ☹ ---

Extra hour? Um… _thinks carefully_ I thought it was an hour less… but then I’m probably just screwed up with my thinking… I usually mess up with that. I’ll probably Role Play tonight then go to sleep. ---

I’m always interested to see how newspapers and such handle the time change in their TV listings. Most of them wimp out and act like nothing’s different, assuming that few people are really going to be concerned about accuracy at 2 a.m. on a Sunday. I did check the on-screen television directory on my cable to see if it would acknowledge the change. It lists a rerun of the hour-long “Millenium” rerun as lasting from 1 a.m. to 1 a.m. ---
