Did the time change today? Do I need to change my clocks? Why does no one tell me when the clocks change?

what? are you in Australia or something where today is tomorrow? If not, class on a Sunday? weird
DST sucked today. I took a nap yesterday from 3-6pm and didn't fall asleep again until 5am( which was now 6am) thus i woke up at 1pm and it felt super late. (confusing much?)

I really didn't notice a change, but I had an eventful evening the other night so I don't need to worry about going to bed late tonight.
I'm pretty beat.

Wouldn't have it any other way.
You quoted me a while ago but I guess the thread got deleted before I could see your response. What was it? I said "Mesa Verde" if that jogs your memory.

I think I asked if you saw the cliff dwellings, either that or talked about staying in a cabin there, something of the sort.

Didn't even know they had cabins up there. And of course I saw the dwellings! Borderline life changing.

Yeah, they were pretty remote but still on the Mesa. The dwellings were just incredible though. It'd be amazing to go back to the time period and try to live that way and see how that worked. And it must have been awful for them to suffer a drought that put them out of the area.

I'll have to look that up. I thought it was just campgrounds and the one hotel. Completely agree with you about going back. I wonder what they would think if they saw how much of a legacy they left behind.

I have a night class at my College
It changed my eating habit though. I'm not really that hungry but still have to eat anyway because it's already 8:00 pm. And time does seem to go by faster too.

So, why does it change at 2am? what's the significance there?

Apparently cause it's late enough where people would be home, but early enough where it wouldn't affect the next day.

Ha same, night classes ftw. It did kind of freak me out looking at the clock go from 1:59 to 3:00 am last night though.

Hahahaha. So uneducated.
Just a heads up, sweetie, she was being sarcastic.

and why is that?
I keep looking at the clock like "Oh, it's 11:30, and I should go to bed, but it really doesn't matter because it's actually only 10:30." I keep forgetting that the time change does hold some significance.

dunno really, they just dont, i think its great, makes the other seem weird for thinking they can just alter the time to whenever they want.

Had to get up at 730am to catch a flight anyways yesterday, so that wasn't too bad.
This morning it was fucking dark when I got up though

I'm equally confused. I don't think they have changed, I'm sure someone would have said something/I would have been late this morning.

Yes, I know she was. I'm not stupid; I was seconding the sarcasm, but I'm glad that you were smart enough to pick that up.
Oh, one more thing: don't call me sweetie.
Cool, thanks.

Haha, it's okay since I actually had no idea. I've heard of it before, but really have no knowledge on Australia besides coral reefs, kangaroos, cute accents and pretty sceneries. Oh, and the Sydney Opera House. :D

Could've fooled me.
Listen, sweetie, don't make me pull the n00b card. I understand self defense, but I also understand attitudes. Lose it, because I have one, too.

I usually get up to take a piss at 5:30, go back to sleep for an hour, and then wake up at 6:30, but now I wake up at 6:30 and have no more time to sleep. Fuck you daylight savings.

Over PM. You told me about the girl that you want, but she's your best friend and you were afraid of that backfiring.

yes that was me! wow you got a good memory!
It literally made me a stud. That's right keep reading.
I was out with my girlfriend and we got home around 1230, and were into the "let's do thangs!" mood, so we started screwing around then it was straight "full on fucking" for a while. Anyway, when all was said and done it was 315 in the morning. Too bad it was truly only 215 because of the change at 2am. Still though made me look like I was boning for 2 hours and 45 minutes. Excellent. If filmed, it would've been the Avatar of porno, which I would've called Vagistar.

Thank you thank you. I thought it was a good enough story to share especially since it was a different twist on the DST traditional "I was late for something."
Also, side note, DST is completely ineffective now and useless. Parts of Arizona don't follow the guidelines and don't change the clocks. Also, it was originally invented to conserve energy many years ago, but due to recent technical advancements the entire premise behind it is useless. It fucks with farming, sleep patterns, large mechanical machines, travelling, and most international business. I hate DST like STD's. Fucking time. It will be the death of me.
I think the entire state of AZ doesn't follow DST minus Native American reservations.

Well not alot for a while but then i thought fuck it im just gonna move on etc. So actually i finally told her about it. Mostly to get some sort of closure and just to move on, she was totally cool about it, nothings weird which is really good. Plus tonight were going to see the used
