Reading harold_maude's journal

In the insterest of the day, I would like to take a moment and reflect on this time of year...namely daylight savings time.

It's an annual event to which we are subject to and it throws everything out of wack for a few days while the adjustment is made to getting up an hour earlier, something that someone invented somewhere.

I don't know who it was, but to them I would like to say this:
it sucks.
The old dead guys that were here a long time ago didn't change their work times just because the days got shorter. They just moved with the seasonal changes and continued what they were already doing. Getting the harvest in, or at least the last of it and getting things ready for winter.

No big deal, but this...man, what a mess. If you have to get up early for work anyway, this messes with how long you get to sleep.
If your used to going to bed around 10 or 11 or even later, when you try to do it earlier and your not sleepy, by the time you finally do fall asleep you get less than last night.

I know the logic behind doing the daylight savings thing, it adjusts our work and school days to the sun.
But tell that to a mom who is dealing with trying to get an infant on a feeding schedual so she can finally get some sleep.

And what about the person who goes to work at 3 or 4 am? This all is so sucky.
I'm protesting.
I know by next weekend it won't matter, we will all have done this change the clock thing and our sleep habits will fall in line, but it's stupid.

I'm done compalining now.

It only looks that way because your standing on your head.
