I’d like to know why we still change the clocks twice a year … Spring ahead, Fall back. There isn’t any sense to it. They (meaning the government, perhaps) say that it saves electricity in the evening because it is lighter, longer. Ummm, ok, but what about the power that we have to use in the morning when we are getting up?
So, I get up late today, late for me anyway. My clock said 7:45AM … I come upstairs and the only clock that has auto-changed is the clock on the PVR and it says 8:45AM – I’ve lost an hour just walking upstairs.
Oh well, nothing that I can personally do to change it. I suppose that I now have to go around and change all of my clocks that aren’t “smart” enough to do it themselves. Hmmm, 2 clocks in the cars, a couple of watches, stove, microwave, two clock radios, clock above the mantle – this is insane …
Maybe I will just leave them alone and remember for the next 8 months or so that they are all an hour behind – will that work? It might get irritating and at some point I might forget about it and then be an hour late for something that I care about.
Oh well, guess I will take care of it sometime today.
Happy Spring – it has nearly sprung.
