You could argue that I shouldn't be.
After all, I don't have to get up and go to work or bring kids to school or anything.
I can go to bed and get up when I want.
Still, the switch to daylight saving time affects me.
We've changed the setting on our watches, like everybody else. So even though I could theoretically sleep an hour later and go to bed an hour later, I don't. I get up around 6am as usual. My dog nags me around 9am, 11am, 1pm, and 4pm as usual. (Okay, she also nags me between those times.
So even though I theoretically could pretend that nothing had changed, then unconscously, when I check the time, I see that it's one hour later.
And then I hurry up and get up, or I make breakfast, or I walk the dog.
Is There Anything Gained by Using Daylight Saving?
A lot of people say no. On the contrary. What we save in electricity, because we don't need to have the light on just as early, we spend on other things, because of the jet-lag we infuse ourselves with.
Not even mentioning all the programming issues it causes.
I envy those who live in Hawaii, because they don't use daylight saving times.
I hope the rulers will see how annoying this is and let us have the time we're naturally supposed to have.
