| 19. It does get weird though |
|
when trying to remember if the east coast is 2 hrs or 3 hrs ahead depending on the time of year. And some cable shows come on at different times depending on where the cable company gets the feed.

| 14. Why does it have to happen at all? |
|
I'm not gonna sleep or shit right for a month.
Also forget about star gazing after work. In the summer it is not dark until 10:30.

Here in the Phoenix area we don't use DST. The sun will set around 7:45pm in the summer. AAAhhhhh.... blessed relief when the sun goes down!

So we wake up to the right time, right?

| 27. Oh it was a few years ago, it's ok. |
|
But thank you.
I just always think of her when it's clock changin' time and have to laugh. Without fail I'd get the call:
"Hello, this is your grandma. Remember to change your clocks--you don't want to be the only one early/late do you?"
Because, I know so many other octogenarians who would be calling me to tell me about clock changing that she just had to identify herself each time. :D
