DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME by: Erin Hannon Erin Hannon Okay, it's that time of year again when they tell us we have to change our clocks. Actually, to be clear, we change the time, not the clocks. I wish somebody had told me that last year. Would've saved me a couple trips to Target. And it's March, so we move the time ahead one hour. Here's a short poem to help you remember: "Spring forward, fall back." Except when I fall, I usually fall forward. And if I ever spring, it's usually up. But that's my issue, not yours. Either way, we lose an hour. Now if anyone knows why it's called Daylight Saving Time even though we lose an hour, please let me know. A better name would be Daylight Changing Time. Come to think of it, it's so weird that we can change the time, don't you think? I mean, don't clocks mean anything? What's to stop us from saying it's Thursday, even though it's clearly Monday? That would be terrible. Especially if I rented a movie from RedBox. I'd automatically be four days late! The good news is that we get to leave work an hour earlier (it will be 4pm but the clocks will say 5). I'm not sure how that affects Stanley's naptime. Since he usually goes down at 4, will he be sleepy enough to nap at 3? And what about lunch? That's going to be a train wreck. Who's hungry at 11? Well, Stanley, I guess, if he's napping at 3. But I'll have to eat breakfast an hour earlier. That's going to throw off my whole morning. Oh boy, I better go figure this out.
