Why do people still freak out about the time change?

It’s ‘Fall back, Spring forward’, simple as that. What about flights? Meetings? Other stuff? Way back when, well, way back before smartphones, I don’t want to say cell phones, because we used to have to set and re-set the time, but with smartphones, it does it for us!

Smartphones, all good. But now what? Now I have to run around the house changing the stove clock, the microwave clock, the bedside clock, ooh, let me date myself, the VCR!!! Oh wait, I live in a hotel, I don’t have to do any of that! Muwahaha!

Of course, what does this mean? It’s going to get dark earlier and by the time you sort of get used to going into the office and leaving the office in the dark, the time changes. Grrr.

Interesting Fact: Did you know that there are several areas in the United States that do not observe DST, daylight saving time? That would be Arizona, Hawaii, American Samoa, Guan, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Little known fact. So…the nice thing about this fact is that right now, PSM and I are only four hours apart instead of five, between Hawaii and Chicago. Wahoo!
