Daylight Savings went into effect this weekend. Did you all remember to set your clocks forward an hour? (To those to whom it applies, anyway.) I didn't even know until yesterday that it was to happen; for some reason I thought it didn't happen until the end of April. Silly me...

I forgot to in my car (actually, can't figure out how) and that freaked me out. I had a babysitting job (for free at church) at 4:45, so when I turned my car on and it flashed 3:30....well that made me jump. :lol:

Yup, computers updated at 2 this morning, well 3 :eh: whichever one you perfer to say. Well, at least my computer and my friend's in Iowa did ^^;

I don't set my clocks back, annoys mum very much but all the same. I can add an hour and then I don't have to worry about setting my clocks back later on.

My main clock is my digital cable box... It gets updated in real time. Of course, the cable company screws up sometimes and the clock actually goes backwards, then forwards again (on days other than daylight savings and standard, I mean)

I believe most of the clocks are set. The remnants will be messed with later. I don’t know about you guys, but the time change really mess up my sleep, well add the fact I'm addicted to Fire Emblem again. :sweat: Speaking of sleep... O_o it's 1:20 now! Well, I better get some sleep…. while I can. Arrivederci!

I liked it better in Phoenix when I didn't have to mess with my clocks. Daylight savings time seems so weird to me. All you're really doing is tricking yourself into waking up an hour earlier. Why not just leave the clocks alone and wake up early anyway. I'll be happy when I'm back in Arizona and don't have to worry about it anymore.

Yeeeees...I wish the rest of the states did as Arizona does in regards to daylight savings time...

I did remember to change it...I reset our clocks about midnight (dunno why I did it then, though...ended up staying up until "4:30" anyway).

Nope, didn't change my clocks because I live in Arizona. Arizona is a weird state. I'm glad I've never had to mess with DST.

I remembered to set my clocks back, although it was pretty annoying to lose an hour of sleep.

As I understand it, daylight savings time was instituted so that farmers would have an extra hour of daylight to work. We still have farmers, so we still have daylight savings time. :P

I forgot when I woke up and totalled up how long I had slept, figured that was ok, even though i was behind an hour, got up, and then remebered I lost an extra hour. (I cannot get back to sleep after I wake up and get up, which was the cause of the malfunction. *giggles*

Yeah, but it's really annoying when you have to stay up an extra hour to watch Adult Swim.
