You'll lose an hour of sleep (or whatever else) between Saturday and Sunday, but at least the sun will then be out longer in the later hours of the day. :)

Yeah, losing an hour of sleep certainly didn't help, but having more daylight at the end the day will be cool (particularly in the summer). :)

I lost time two Sundays in a row because I forgot the US moves forward a week later than England. The last thing my mother said to me a week Satruday was "don't forget to move your clocks forward". I did to eventually realize I was totally confused as to what time it was. My wife was not very happy when I dragged her out of bed an hour earlier than she had to.

:D

Though why does England set its clocks and watches forward a week earlier than the U.S. does (and vice versa)? :confused:

Was today the longest freakin' day or what? I had no trouble with the change on Sunday, because I didn't have anywhere to be. This a.m. I overslept the alarm. I was missing 10 students this a.m. due to the change and the rain. I spent the rest of the day trying to get the late comers caught up. By the time I was ready to go home @4:30, I could have sworn it was 8:30! I'm now just trying to gut it out until 9:00 (when I can put myself to bed without being teased by my husband).
