Did y'all set your clocks forward?
Daylight Savings went into effect this weekend. Did you all remember to set your clocks forward an hour? (To those to whom it applies, anyway.) I didn't even know until yesterday that it was to happen; for some reason I thought it didn't happen until the end of April. Silly me...

Yup, computers updated at 2 this morning, well 3 
whichever one you perfer to say. Well, at least my computer and my friend's in Iowa did ^^;
I don't set my clocks back, annoys mum very much but all the same. I can add an hour and then I don't have to worry about setting my clocks back later on.

"Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
and things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art; to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul."
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

and I got an atomic clock so yeah 
My main clock is my digital cable box... It gets updated in real time. Of course, the cable company screws up sometimes and the clock actually goes backwards, then forwards again (on days other than daylight savings and standard, I mean)

I believe most of the clocks are set. The remnants will be messed with later. I don’t know about you guys, but the time change really mess up my sleep, well add the fact I'm addicted to Fire Emblem again. 
Speaking of sleep... O_o it's 1:20 now! Well, I better get some sleep…. while I can. Arrivederci!

I liked it better in Phoenix when I didn't have to mess with my clocks. Daylight savings time seems so weird to me. All you're really doing is tricking yourself into waking up an hour earlier. Why not just leave the clocks alone and wake up early anyway. I'll be happy when I'm back in Arizona and don't have to worry about it anymore.

Yeeeees...I wish the rest of the states did as Arizona does in regards to daylight savings time...
I did remember to change it...I reset our clocks about midnight (dunno why I did it then, though...ended up staying up until "4:30" anyway).

(in response to an interview question "Do you have a pet peeve having to do with this biz?")
People who write below their abilities in order to crank out tons of books and make a buck. Especially Christian authors who do that. Outsiders judge us for it, and make fun of us for it, and it makes Jesus look bad. We of all artists on earth should be the most concerned with doing our best possible work at all times. We of all people should write with all our hearts, as if writing for the Lord and not for men.

Nope, didn't change my clocks because I live in Arizona. Arizona is a weird state. I'm glad I've never had to mess with DST.

I remembered to set my clocks back, although it was pretty annoying to lose an hour of sleep.
As I understand it, daylight savings time was instituted so that farmers would have an extra hour of daylight to work. We still have farmers, so we still have daylight savings time.

I forgot when I woke up and totalled up how long I had slept, figured that was ok, even though i was behind an hour, got up, and then remebered I lost an extra hour. (I cannot get back to sleep after I wake up and get up, which was the cause of the malfunction. *giggles*
The choice has been made. There's no looking back. I won't let up, back up, give up, or shut up. My focus clear. My path is straight. My God, reliable. I'm a disciple of Christ.
Gods plan is like the sun. its too big and bright to look at directly, and sometimes the rain clouds cover it, but sometimes the plan dapples through the clouds and we can see beautiful glimpses of what he has in store for us.

Yeah, but it's really annoying when you have to stay up an extra hour to watch Adult Swim.
