Just so everyone knows (to all that daylight savings applies to) - Daylight Savings starts tonight at 2 AM. Technically November 2nd at 2 Am. We fall back an hour, meaning the time will then be 1 AM, we all get an extra hour, yay right?

Well it'll be darker earlier but the sun will rise an hour earlier as well.

Just a friendly reminder since I had no idea - I just found out because my little sister just told me. I probably would have screwed things up tomorrow and monday.

Yea, so if I got on the bus at 7:30, now I would, technically, be getting on at 6:30, meaning it would be darker.

no, if you got on the bus at 7:30 it means you are getting on at 8:30 - we fall back, fall back from 8:30 to 7:30

if you were to get on the bus at 7:30, you'd be at 6:30

just change your clocks back one hour!!! It's that simple lol

Well, when your not thinking clearly. You go hmmmm, clocks being set back. that means it will be 5:30 instead of 6:30 outside.

All the clocks in my room change by them selves. My computer of course does, then my DVR box changes by it's self. Even my stereo does, I guess it's preset or something.

Lol My body can't get used to this.. xD
And Linny is right, it'd be lighter when you get on the bus. I used to wake up and 6:30am and it wouldn't get light until like.. 7:30-ish. But when I got up today, it was light. Lol.

My friends DVR was making us go nuts when the hour fell back. It would say certain shows were on, and a different show was on there.

Lol It took my phone FOREVER to change the time. Stupid Alltel. >> Lol.
Our DVR was jacked up to begin with, so time change or not, it's rather retarded. >>;

and nobody noticed i spelled Daylight wrong lol...i just looked and was like "wtf" - thought this was copy thread lol

@yuuki - usually restarting the phone helps - my phone did it automatically this time, but last time it changed, i had to restart my phone to get it right

My ipod always has trouble with time. It's like 5 minutes fast, no matter what. Never had any problems with my phone though.

Switching clocks is probably annoying... I felt more rested though. :)
