Daylight Savings Time

Man DST is lame. I lost an hour of my weekend! I heard Verizon iPhones fell back instead of springing forward. That's a double whammy. You wake up and think you've got 2 more hours to sleep!

NP here w/ my AT&T iPhone...but I LOATHE DST...even more since I had children. It takes them forever to adjust. I begrudgingly admit the extra hour of daylight is nice for exercise and getting outside though.

I think Holden not only sprung forward but then he woke up an hour earlier than usual..so it was like he was two hours ahead. Ugh.

My phone was fine but Dave's At&T phone was wrong until about 1 p.m. then it was fine.

There is a glitch in the iPhone where if you set your alarm to re-occur, it will stay in the original time it thinks its in before the change. So my alarm went off at 6am this morning, and I didnt realize it till I get a text from my wife saying it was only 6:05am... I wasnt too happy... lol

Nope! It took a while to get used to, because instead of moving clocks back and forth, they just switch time zones. For part of the year they follow Pacific Time, and the other part they follow Mountain Time.

Wow!
Wait..now that I think about it..don't they do that in some other states as well?

That reminds me of this one time we drove to Tennessee & we stopped at McDonald's for an early lunch but little did we know that we had switched time zones and it was still breakfast. And trust me...anytime we wake up early enough for a McDonald's breakfast is reason to celebrate!
