Don’t get me wrong – I *love* Daylight Savings Time. I am by nature a night person (and most emphatically *not* a morning person), so having more light at the end of the day and less at the beginning is a very positive thing for me. I love sunlight. In fact, I am such a big fan of DST that I think it should become our normal time, and we should *never* go back to Standard Time. That way, it would never again get dark at 4:30 in the afternoon in winter. So, clearly, “springing forward in the spring” is generally not a problem for me. However, today I have discovered that losing an hour of sleep on top of already getting only 3-4 hours of sleep at a time because of a new baby *REALLY SUCKS*!!! I think Craig described it best: “All the parts of me that aren’t asleep, ache”. That pretty much sums up our lives these days! %-)
