not sure where else it applies!

We had it on Thursday night (so we'll have our weekend of Friday and Saturday to get used to it). I was wondering when it happens in the rest of the world.

Our wings are not tired.

Feel robbed. Needed that hour of sleep. Only half of clocks changed. Must consume coffee. Sentences might improve.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I got to feel that little glow of technological gadget neatness this morning. My Sony radio alarm clock doesn't automatically change for DST... however, it has one dedicated little 'DST' button (neatly labeled 'for summer' beneath the button proper) that you just have to push, and instant DST!

OK, sometimes I amuse really easy.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I remembered. I shake my fist at my lost hour of sleep.

Now to motivate and get outta the house within the hour.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

This has got to be a joke, and it's hilarious. Life lessons from TLC like, "Merlot and email don't mix" and "Turn off the TV before getting intimate." Heh.

If it's a joke, it's one they've been advertising on tv and in bus shelters for the past couple of weeks.

Yes, that.

I wonder if msbelle got out of the house. I sure haven't.

But I'm amusing myself by looking at film clips of The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain:

Interesting fact of the AM: the Hawaiian pronunciation of ukulele is ooo-koo-lay-lay. It never occurred to me that of course it would follow the actual rules of Hawaiian language stuff.

Needed that hour of sleep.

No freaking kidding. The extra hour we get in fall is always kind of nice, but I'd totally trade it.

Why don't they move the clock on Friday night, so that you'll have the whole weekend to get used to the different schedule?

(Also, hi, Emily! It's been forever since we posted together! How are you doing?)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've been waking up at five-something o'clock for the last few weeks. I should be able to sleep longer now that it's gonna get light out later.

I only had one clock to set - the rest set themselves....

I think because more people have off Sunday than Saturday.
