I hate everything

It's been a beastly week over here. There were talks that were given, packages to be mailed out, lots of phone tag with the insurance people because now my back bumper is falling off.  Then there was a incident that involved someone taking off their diaper and pooping on the floor of their room. Oh and there was that lovely annual time change Daylight Saving which threw off our resident toddler's sleep schedule and its been a week of meltdowns and chaos ever since.

Just to clarify, there is no such thing as March and November DST. November is when we go back to Standard Time.

I find it somewhat alarming that most adults don't understand Daylight Saving. My instagram feed has been full of people giddily enjoying their "extra" hour of sunlight. I've heard others admit that while they don't enjoy getting up earlier they wouldn't have it any other way, because you know, places that don't do DST it gets dark early. Still others have talked about doing DST twice a year.

Ok folks here we go:
Daylight Saving begins in March and ends in November. From November to March we are on Standard Time. Got it? There is no mythical extra hour of sunlight. The so called "saving" comes from taking an hour of sunlight from the beginning of the day and adding it to the end of the day. Well, not really. It's actually the government forcing you to wake up and be productive an hour earlier everyday so that you finish an hour earlier and there is still sunlight so it feels all warm, and fuzzy. Isn't that sweet? The government cares about you. Also, there are lots of places that don't use daylight saving. AZ doesn't and guess what time the sun sets in the summer? Around 8ish. And do you know what happens after it gets dark? People utilize that wonderful, new-fangled, modern invention called the light bulb. I promise you, no one is sitting around in the dark.

I hate mornings. I hate people. But there is nothing I hate more than morning people. And they seem to be the only ones who looooove getting up earlier.

So here is my solution.
1. Let's get rid of DST.
2. Those who want to enjoy an extra hour of sunlight can haul their butts out of bed early voluntarily. The rest of us normal people would like to enjoy our sleep.
3. Morning people can go kill themselves.

And that concludes my annual rant about DST.

Got these images from google search. Go ahead, sue me. You can have all of our crap and our student loans.
