i love the extra daylight in summer, but not when still working. and the kids gotta come to school in the dark longer now.

We do not  change our clocks in Arizona.  The last thing we want or need is another hour of daylight!  I didn't even realize the times had changed in the rest of the country until I spoke on the telephone with a relative in another state this afternoon.
Early March and it is only dusk at almost 7PM here.  I remember the time I spent in Ireland and London when it was still light at 10PM!  It was unsettling to say the least!  
No, I love living here.  All I have to do is add an hour to the time difference east of Me or even up with the west coast for these next several months.  I never have to worry about My personal clocks!

Status: offline 		I have a love/hate relationship with this early dst time thing.... we get a lot of power outages whenever it rains (almost the whole county lost power for 2 & 1/2 hours yesterday because of wind) so almost all my clocks are the smart set ones that automatically update the time.  Now, I have to set them ahead manually... and then set them back after the rest of the world does DST.  Annoying... but I suppose in the end its worth never being late because the power went out.

Status: offline 		i wasn't even aware of it until my computer clock updated itself... damn good thing, too, because if it hadn't my wife probably would have missed her flight! 

It'll be nice to still have some daylight left when i get home from work, tho... Makes me feel less like a mushroom, and increases the odds of my actually accomplishing something with the evening.

I have been off work for 9 months

I have another 9 months to a year to go.

Is it setting the clock forwards or back?

On the other hand, I slept most of the day and night which I needed very badly.  I pulled a two week stretch without a day off and was beginning to go crazier than I really am.  You know?

lol, Bumergy
You are not a bum, you just resemble that remark.
Clocks went forward, so the former time now would be 6:30 and now its 7:30a.m.
I am okay with this, where am I ?  who am I? where is that place I am going to go
now?
oh yes, work!

Status: offline 		I am exhausted from the time change. Waking up at 3 am instead of 4 am is hard. It is also not nice to be leaving for work in the dark when I had just gotten used to it being dawn as I am leaving for the office at 6 am. It will take me about a week to adjust to the lack of daylight helping me wake up.
