    Don't forget to set your clocks tonight. It'll be nice having that extra hour of light in the afternoon.

    I hate leaping forward. For the next 6 months I will feel sleep deprived. Since I leave for work so early (4:30) I get to see the sun for about 3 mornings in summer - then it is keeping me awake when I go to bed. Set my two non-auto clocks ahead a couple of hours ago, so I'm all set to start grumbling about it bright and early tomorrow morning.

    I’m looking forward to the extra hour of daylight in the afternoon. Won’t be dark now til 6:45. By the end of this month it won’t be dark until 7:15. Not to long ago it was dark at 4:30.

    It screws me out of 1 hour of my birthday this year. Not a huge deal, just annoying.

    The worst part about it is that it takes he ac few weeks to get used to the spring forward.

    Are you the 7th or 8th? I know it's either the same day as mine or after. I remember talking about this a year or two ago.
