Daylight Savings: An Exercise in D'oh

It’s been one of those super busy days today and it seems like everyone I’ve spoken with is sort of in a bad mood and ready to take it out on anyone they come into contact with. I’m chalking it up to daylight savings. In the interest of full disclosure, this is the daylight savings I really like—where I get an extra hour of sleep, instead of being unceremoniously gypped from much-needed beauty-sleep. I’m not kidding. I need all the help I can get! I just think it’s difficult for people having to readjust their internal clocks—makes everyone a little cranky. You have to mentally reset for important things like lunch-time (I was really hungry by 11:30), plus the day TOTALLY drags. It feels like 4:30, but it's only 3:30, and suddenly 5:00 seems a zillion hours away.

Those people in Arizona, who don’t practice daylight savings, are brilliant!
