Daylight Savings Time

This morning I woke up strangely early, and I pondered what was wrong with me. Well, there’s really nothing wrong, it’s just that today is Daylight Savings Time (DST) in North America. We have sprung our clocks forward one hour.
That, unfortunately, doesn’t make me happy because (a) I wake up early as it is every day and (b) yes, it’s lovely to have more daylight but it’s really hard on my body when I lose sleep.
But anyways, in case you didn’t know, you should change the time in your clocks today one hour later (e.g. right now it’s 7.32am because of the DST).

You do know that you don’t *actually* get any more daylight as a result of Daylight Saving Time, right? There are still the same number of hours of daylight, it’s just that the time is shifted by an hour so you get more of the daylight earlier.
Daylight Saving always messes me up a little bit! This morning I woke up and it felt like it was way .. too.. early. Still, I suppose I’m glad we observe it because it is nice to still have light in the day in the winter, and have extra sunlight in the summer.
Now, if only I could perfect going to sleep on time…
