Daylight Savings Time
You know what? I absolutely hate hate hate it when the sun is up before I have to wake up. For the last week or so, I have been waking up before my alarm clock because it is light outside. You know when you wake up and see that it is already light out and your heart skips a beat as you think you are late? Then you pop up to check your clock and you still have like thirty minutes to sleep? But, of course, you can't get back to sleep because you have already scared yourself awake? This is driving me fucking crazy. And then daylight savings kicks in (or out, not sure which) and it will be totally light out at 6:00 when my alarm sounds... or will it?
Daylight Saving Time is one of those evil and practically non-understandable events. The first thing that I don't get is why in the sam hell we have to have it at all. I mean, it can't be that big of a deal if we change it back a few months later, right? That was one thing I loved about living in Arizona, they don't have it there. The second thing I hate is trying to figure out if I am supposed to turn the clock forward or backwards. Thank goodness someone finally told me about Spring forward and Fall back. (Before that, I was depending on my computer's genius to tell me what time it was.) So this Spring on April third, I am to turn my clocks forward one hour.
So, maybe I am an idiot (no comments necessary there, tyvm) but my brain has a very difficult time comprehending whether I am getting up earlier or later. If I have lost or gained anything at all. I mean, if I changed the clock forward last Fall, then did I gain or lose an hour then? Am I getting it back now, or losing it? I am definitely losing it, lol. I think the entire concept of Daylight Savings Time is ludicrous. It would be awesome if the entire fad was just done away with, if for no other reason than to cut stress levels. Because the more I think about it, the more confused I get.

"I just got done reading the history lessons on your blog (yes, I've been lurking on your blog). All the respect I had for you...has increased, like, tenfold. I don't think I could have done it. To go through what you have and not only still be able to discuss it with such wit and poise, but also to raise those three gorgeous girls. You are truly an inspiration. You are honestly one of the strongest people I have ever known, either online or IRL. Thank you so much." -Stef
