Time for my yearly grumble about Stupid Ugly Daylight Savings Time.

*grumble*

OK, that's done. :)

Himself will be rebuilding the swingset this weekend, and I think I'll just be swilling decaf lattes, writing and folding laundry. Ah, the glamorous life.

You?

It's those who work graveyard that benefit from the start of Daylight Savings Time...one hour less of work! Woohoo! But then wait until Fall, and we've got an extra hour...

Yahoo for DST - at least now the clock on my VCR shows the right time (lost the remote years ago and can't access menus without it lol)

I had that problem too. Except the power went out once and now it permanantly has no time on it.

And here's my semi-annual language grumble: "saving" is a gerund, not a noun, so it's "Daylight Saving Time" with no "s" after "Saving."
