Same as anyone else -I drink through it! But seriously, for some odd reason, this year it doesn’t seem to be such a problem. Operative word: seem. I could be hallucinating at this moment, but how would I know…?

I get neurotic and stress about daylight savings half the day before it happens. Then, I spend the next few days out of sync and unsure of the actual time, because all of the clocks obviously cannot be changed together. That would be too easy.
Does this count as “dealing with”? I suppose it does as long as I get through it. No one said I had to be pragmatic about it.

I get so pumped about having an extra hour of daylight playtime, I train for it! I get my ass in bed early and get my No Whining face on. No whining and dragging into the office late for meetings on Monday. No, there is no crying in Daylight Savings Time people. Only laughter and extra bike rides and good freaking times. One hour less of the Boogeyman prowling about (no I am not paranoid). LOOOOOVE Daylight Savings Time. Love it. There is no whining, only WINNING.

Just returned from the PAC 10 women’s basketball tournament and change of time, but one thing that has not changed is there is still a man announcing all the women’s basketball games. I have complained about this for YEARS.
Go Stanford….who, by the way, has a woman announcing all regular games! YEAH!

I work 12 hr nite shift in a hospital. After 30 yrs I still don’t know what I shirk do about med distribution. If something is ordered every 4 hrs and I stick to that, it shows I’m an hour late plus it throws it off for the next shift. Now they are due right when trays for meals are up? WTF! Can’t we let the farmers set their. Own stupid alarm roosters?

I just keep going. Always have. Last daylight savings I was almost late for work due to the I Phones’ problem with the alarm function. This one is like most. Almost feels like jetlag.

Why do we lose an hour if it’s Daylight “Savings?” Are the bankers in charge of time, too?

I can’t adjust. Who came up with this ridiculous idea, anyway…I catch a bad cold every year at this time. I think it’s as good an excuse as any to stay home and hibernate. Go UCONN!

It takes me about a month to adjust. During this time, I walk around in a haze most of the day. It takes me roughly twice as long to complete any task, and I find myself falling asleep while in the middle of…Zzzzzzzzzzzz

Daylight Saving Time. I finally figured out how to adjust the clocks and wristwatches without making my fingers sore from those pointy thingamabobs. I just pull out the battery or the plug or the watchstem until the time on the dial matches the new correct time and then plug everything back in. I just use the cellphone to give me the correct time while the dials are catching up.

…I am soooooooo off with this time change. can’t sleep at night…falling asleep at my desk at 3 p.m… wide awake at 3 a.m. Gave up trying to adjust…figure when it all catches up with me I will just pass out somewhere from shear exhaustion. Started wearing a name tag just in case I pass out where no one knows me.
