It's that time of year again: The return to Standard Time. Daylight Savings Time is a "short-timer." I love falling back. I love the extra hour of sleep. I wouldn't mind falling back every month...except for one thing--not all of my clocks are consistent. Some times they adjust themselves. Sometimes they wait for me to adjust them. Sometimes they adjust themselves at different times of the day. And once, my atomic clock adjusted itself a week later! So, every time change I'm up at 2 am making note of which clock has gone through the change, and which has not. Periodically (throughout the next day and sometimes week), I recheck all the clocks, and finally, when I think they are through changing. I change the stubborn ones...only to have them change afterward!
So much for being able to sleep an extra hour--but the intent is a really good one.
...at 1am Standard Time, the numbers stand thusly: changed=2 (iPhone and computer), unchanged=4 (SUV, atomic clock, alarm clock across the room, and alarm clock next to me).
ReplyDeleteI wonder...if I had posted something between 2 am DayLight Savings TIme and 1 am Standard Time, what time would FB say I posted? Would the post time appear to be a "future" time?
ReplyDeleteGuess I'll have to try that out next year....
It's mid-December. I'm not sure when it happened, but I noticed the atomic clock has finally self-corrected. :~)
